Applied Assessment Method for Varus Thrust during Walking in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis Using Acceleration Data Measured by an Inertial Measurement Unit

We developed a novel quantitative method to assess varus thrust during walking using acceleration data obtained from an inertial measurement unit (IMU). This study aimed to examine the reliability of the developed index and to evaluate its ability to distinguish patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA...
