Hip and Knee Moments Normal and With Scoliosis

Kinetic analysis appears to be useful in providing objective information regarding the gait abilities of scoliotic patients which is difficult to be observed in a clinical setting. Objective: the aim of the study was to analyze the hip and knee peak abductor moments during gait in subjects with idiopathic scoliosis.

About this study

The hip and knee abductors' moments normalized to body weight have been investigated in normal subjects and subjects with idiopathic scoliosis. The scoliosis group included a twenty-two-moderate idiopathic dorso-lumbar single scoliotic curve. The control group contained a normal twenty-two subjects. 3D motion analysis system and force plat were used for data collection for hip and knee abductor moment. MANOVA was used to study the difference between normal and scoliotic groups' hip and knee abductor moments in both lower limbs. at alpha level of significance of 0.05.
