Influence of the Amount of Change in Quadriceps Tendon Young’s Modulus on Amount of Change in Walking Speed before and after Total Knee Arthroplasty

Influence of the Amount of Change in Quadriceps Tendon Young’s Modulus on Amount of Change in Walking Speed before and after Total Knee Arthroplasty

<i>Background and Objectives</i>: Walking speed after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an important outcome. However, the effect of quadriceps tendon stiffness on walking speed remains unclear. This study aimed to clarify the influence of the amount of change in quadriceps tendon stiffne...
