Instrumented immobilizing boot quantifies reduced Achilles tendon loading during gait

2020-02-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Achilles tendon ruptures are common injuries that lead to functional deficits in two-thirds of patients. Progressively loading the healing tendon has been associated with superior outcomes, but the loading profiles that patients experience throughout rehabilitation have not yet been established. In this study, we developed and calibrated an instrumented immobilizing boot paradigm that is aimed a...
