Comparison of maximum angles of varus and knee flexion in the stance phase of walking on a treadmill with different inclinations between female athletes with Genu valgum and healthy knees
The aim of this study was to investigate the maximum angles of varus and flexion while walking on positive, negative and zero slopes.
Design
Clinical trial with control group, grouping based on measuring the distance of intermalleolar by goniometer
Settings and conduct
Data recording using motion analysis system in the laboratory of the Faculty of Physical Education and Sports Sciences, Bahonar University of Kerman
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Individuals exercised regularly at least three times a week and had no history of lower limb fractures or surgery
Intervention groups
Treadmill gradient in both knock-knee and control groups
Main outcome variables
The kinematic factor while walking: Maximum change in knee valgus angle during the stance phase of walking (compared to static test)
