The biomechanical fingerprint of hip and knee osteoarthritis patients during activities of daily living KU Leuven Universiteit Hasselt
BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis is a highly prevalent disease affecting the hip and knee joint and is characterized by load-mediated pain and decreased quality of life. Dependent on involved joint, patients present antalgic movement compensations, aiming to decrease loading on the involved joint. However, the associated alterations in mechanical loading of the ipsi- and contra-lateral lower limb joints, are less documented. Here, we documented the ...
