Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following knee injury, it’s common to use a knee brace for security and support. Studies investigating the effects of knee braces on performance have been very controversial. Some studies have found that a brace decreases performance while others have found improved performance when it comes to range of motion and strength. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of two different types of popular knee braces.

Download or read book The Effects of Prophylactic Ankle Bracing on Knee and Hip Mechanics in Basketball Players During Jump Landing written by Riann K. Thayer and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: Many athletes of various sports have been required to wear ankle braces for prophylactic uses. Ankle braces have been shown to decrease range of motion in all directions, which means the main force absorption mechanism of the ankle may be inhibited. This decrease in force absorption at the ankle may increase the mechanical demands at the more proximal knee and hip joints. In this study, the change in knee, hip and lower back mechanics will be investigated to gain understanding as to whether bracing the ankle could create a higher injury potential. Methods: In this study, 12 intercollegiate basketball players (6 female, 6 male) participated during one session, in which each subject tested for each taping condition (self-adherent, adhesive cloth, and no tape). For each trial, the participants performed three maximum vertical jump trials and three depth drop trials, a 15-minute bout of exercise, and subsequently three more maximum vertical jumps and three more depth drops. The participants' lower body kinematics and kinetics were measured using 3D motion capture and force plates. Results: Analysis of ankle bracing pre- and post-exercise on lower extremity kinematics and kinetics through a two-way MANOVA yielded results that were not significant for any of the variables, including their interaction effect. There was no effect of the three different types of ankle bracing (control, adhesive, and self-adhesive), exercise (pre-and post-), or the interaction of those variables on peak hip flexion, peak knee flexion, peak knee moment, peak hip moment, and peak lumbosacral moment. Conclusion: Ankle bracing had no effect on selected lower body kinematics and kinetics. More research should be done to better understand whether ankle bracing has the potential to increase injury at other joints.
Download or read book Evaluation of Biomechanical and Neuromuscular Effects of Prophylactic Knee Brace Use Following Exercise written by Elora C Brenneman and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of knee braces prophylactically is still considered as an approach for injury mitigation for those in high-risk sporting activities, though their use is not fully supported. The purpose of this thesis was to examine biomechanical and neuromuscular effects of prophylactic brace wear following standardized repetitive exercise. Twelve participants participated and acted as their own control. The participants were required to participate in two sessions, one control session with no brace and one intervention session with the application of a off-the-shelf prophylactic knee brace. Pre-and post-exercise intervention single leg drop landings were recorded to examine the effects of an acute exercise stimulus on the neuromuscular and biomechanical effects of brace wear. Additionally, trials were collected at 30-minutes post-exercise to examine residual effects of the brace wear on landing kinematics and kinetics. Difference tests using analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that there was a minimal effect of the prophylactic knee brace on biomechanical and neuromuscular variables following exercise as well as 30-minutes following knee brace removal. Further research may be required to identify if braces can be worn prophylactically to reduce the risk of injury during activity.
