OBJECTIVES: To evaluate if altering the foot progression angle (FPA) by varying magnitudes during gait alters the external knee adduction moment (KAM), knee flexion moment (KFM), knee extension moment (KEM) and/or symptoms in people with medial knee osteoarthritis (OA). Potential influence of pain and knee malalignment on load-modifying effects of FPA was investigated.
DESIGN: Participants (n = 22) underwent 3-dimensional gait analysis to measure KAM peaks, KAM impulse, KFM and KEM peaks. Following natural gait, five altered FPA conditions were performed in random order (10° toe-in, 0° FPA, 10° toe-out, 20° toe-out and 30° toe-out). A projection screen displayed their real-time FPA. Pain/discomfort at knees and feet/ankles were evaluated for each condition. Linear mixed models were used for statistical analysis.
RESULTS: Toe-in reduced the early stance peak KAM and KEM but increased the KAM impulse, late stance peak and KFM. Toe-out reduced the KAM impulse, late stance peak and KFM (P < 0.001) but increased the early stance peak KAM and KEM. All effects were greater in participants with more varus knees. Pain significantly mediated the effect of altered FPA on the KAM impulse and late stance peak. In more painful individuals, toe-in was predicted to reduce the KAM impulse and late stance peak, and increase them for toe-out gait. There were no immediate symptomatic changes.
CONCLUSIONS: Effects of altered FPA vary across all medial knee load parameters and it is difficult to determine an optimal direction of FPA change. Future studies should consider Western Ontario McMaster Universities OA Index (WOMAC) pain to judge the likely effects of altered FPA.
