STUDY DESIGN: Single Cohort Study. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the efficacy of real-time biofeedback provided during treadmill gait training for correcting knee hyperextension in asymptomatic female while walking. BACKGROUND: Knee hyperextension is associated with increased stress to the posterior capsule of the knee joint, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), and anterior compartment of the tibiofemoral joint. Previous methods aimed at correcting knee hyperextension have shown limited success. Studies support the use of biofeedback to improve learning of motor skills. METHODS: Ten women, ages 18 to 39 years, with asymptomatic knee hyperextension during ambulation were provided with 6 sessions of real-time feedback of kinematic data (Visual 3D) during treadmill training. Gait evaluations were performed pretraining, posttraining, and 1 month after the last training session. RESULTS: Improved control of knee hyperextension during over ground walking at 1.3 m/s was shown at posttraining and at 1 month post-training. CONCLUSION: The present study shows that knee sagittal plane kinematics can be influenced by gait re-training using real-time biofeedback.
