Relationship of Knee Abduction Moment to Trunk and Lower Extremity Segment Acceleration during Sport-specific Movements

Abstract

Fortiton Caroline*

This study investigates the relationship between Knee Abduction Moment (KAM) and trunk and lower extremity segment acceleration during sportspecific movements. Understanding this relationship is crucial for elucidating biomechanical factors contributing to knee injury risk and developing targeted interventions for injury prevention. Kinematic and kinetic data are collected during sport-specific movements, and correlation analysis is performed to examine the associations between KAM and segmental acceleration patterns. The findings provide insights into the biomechanical mechanisms underlying knee joint loading during dynamic movements, with implications for optimizing movement patterns and reducing injury risk in athletes.
