The purpose of the current study is to analyze and compare the lower-limb joint motions and muscle activation patterns during activities of daily living as well as self reported health related functional outcomes for patients with osteoarthritis of the knee undergoing one of two types of knee replacements: the Evolution Medial Pivot knee (Wright Medical) or the Triathlon Posterior Stabilized (PS) knee (Stryker Orthopaedics).
Inclusion:
40 patients between the ages of 50 and 75 yrs undergoing unilateral total knee replacement for non-inflammatory degenerative osteoarthritis will participate, as well as 10 control participants will be recruited from the general population for the present study matching to experimental groups for age, gender and BMI.
Patients who do not meet any exclusion criteria.
