Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty for Osteoarthritis Eliminates Lateral Thrust: Associations between Lateral Thrust Detected by Inertial Measurement Units and Clinical Outcomes

Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty for Osteoarthritis Eliminates Lateral Thrust: Associations between Lateral Thrust Detected by Inertial Measurement Units and Clinical Outcomes

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between clinical outcomes and lateral thrust before and after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) using inertial measurement sensor units. Eleven knees were evaluated with gait analysis. The varus angular velocity was used to evaluat...
