The effect of a knee ankle foot orthosis on lower limb kinematics and kinetics in an individual with varus knee alignment
Thesis
Alfatafta, H. (in press). The effect of a knee ankle foot orthosis on lower limb kinematics and kinetics in an individual with varus knee alignment. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Introduction: Increased knee loading and a varus knee deformity have been linked with progression of knee osteoarthritis and thus, reducing both of these are key treatment principles. There are different types of orthoses which are recommended to cor...

An investigation into the relationship between rocker sole designs and alteration to lower limb kinetics, kinematics and muscle function during adult gait
Thesis
Aksenov, A. An investigation into the relationship between rocker sole designs and alteration to lower limb kinetics, kinematics and muscle function during adult gait. (Thesis). University of Salford

Introduction Intermittent claudication (IC) is a condition which affects people with peripheral arterial disease in the lower limbs and causes calf muscle pain and limping due to the lack of blood supply to the gastrocnemius muscle in particula...
