Abstract: | BackgroundKinematic and kinetic foot models showed that computing ankle joint angles, moments and power with a one-segment foot modeling approach alters kinematics and tends to overestimate ankle joint power. Nevertheless, gait studies continue to implement one-segment foot models to assess the effect of total ankle replacement.Research questionThe objective of this pilot study was to investigate the effect of the foot modeling approach (one-segment versus multi-segment) on how total ankle replacement is estimated to benefit or degrade the patient’s biomechanical performance.MethodsTen subjects with post-traumatic ankle osteoarthritis scheduled for total ankle replacement and 10 asymptomatic subjects were recruited. A one-segment and a multi-segment foot model were used to calculate intrinsic foot joints kinematics and kinetics during gait. A linear mixed model was used to investigate the effect of the foot model on ankle joint kinematic and kinetic analysis and the effect of total ankle replacement.ResultsDifferences in range of motion due to the foot model effect were significant for all the gait subphases of interest except for midstance. Peak power generation was significantly overestimated when computed with the one-segment foot model. Ankle and shank-calcaneus joint dorsi-/plantarflexion range of motion did not increase post-operatively except during the loading response phase. A significant ‘group’ effect was found for stance and pre-swing phase range of motion, with total ankle replacement patients showing lower range of motion values than controls for dorsi/plantarflexion.SignificanceThe outcome of this study showed that the ‘foot model’ had a significant effect on estimates of range of motion and power generation. The findings in our study therefore emphasize the clinical interest of multi-segment foot modeling when assessing the outcome of a therapeutic intervention. |
