The biomechanical changes during sport-specific tasks and different commercially available footwear in individuals following meniscectomy (2020)
Thesis
Walters, V. The biomechanical changes during sport-specific tasks and different commercially available footwear in individuals following meniscectomy. (Thesis). University of Salford

Injuries to the meniscus are common particularly in sporting individuals. Traumatic meniscal tears typically occur due to a high impact twisting action on a planted foot, which can be seen in sports such as basketball, football and skiing. Competitiv...

Evaluation of movement variability and knee biomechanics during functional sporting tasks in healthy individuals and individuals following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury (ACL) and ACL reconstruction (2019)
Thesis
Alyami, A. Evaluation of movement variability and knee biomechanics during functional sporting tasks in healthy individuals and individuals following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury (ACL) and ACL reconstruction. (Thesis). University of Salford

Background Injury to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a serious problem which can occur during some sporting activities. Knee biomechanics and movement variability (MV) comprise two very important aspects relating to injury risk, where it ha...

Functional and patient outcomes following Total Knee Arthroplasty : a multiple-methods approach (2019)
Thesis
a multiple-methods approach. (Thesis). University of Salford

Background and aims: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the gold standard treatment for end-stage knee osteoarthritis. The main outcomes expected are reduced pain and improved function. There is conflicting evidence regarding functional changes post-TK... Read More about Functional and patient outcomes following Total Knee Arthroplasty : a multiple-methods approach.

Functional recovery at discharge from rehabilitation following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (2019)
Thesis
Almalki, H. Functional recovery at discharge from rehabilitation following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. (Thesis). University of Salford

Functional performance, as well as objective and subjective measures, and psychological factors tests are used in clinically based settings to assess knee function, as well as to determine when patient is ideally suited to return to sport (RTS). Succ... Read More about Functional recovery at discharge from rehabilitation following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Towards improved efficacy of exercise programmes in knee osteoarthritis (2012)
Thesis
AI-Khlaifat, L. Towards improved efficacy of exercise programmes in knee osteoarthritis. (Thesis). University of Salford

Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a common musculoskeletal condition influenced by the load on the knee (i.e. External Knee Adduction Moment (EKAM)). Clinical guidelines recommend exercise and education with knee OA. Open kinetic chain strengthening exe... Read More about Towards improved efficacy of exercise programmes in knee osteoarthritis.
