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...

Measuring the functional and clinical effectiveness of a passive dynamic ankle foot orthosis when used to rehabilitate complex limb salvage post lower limb blast trauma (2020)
Thesis
Bennett, N. Measuring the functional and clinical effectiveness of a passive dynamic ankle foot orthosis when used to rehabilitate complex limb salvage post lower limb blast trauma. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Summary: Studies suggest passive dynamic ankle foot orthoses (PD AFO) are effective at improving gait and patient reported outcomes measures (PROM) in personnel who have undergone limb salvage due to blast trauma. Studies using PD AFOs have included...
