Knee loading measures in control (no wedge) and wedged (average of 2 lateral wedges) conditions, and associated percentage changes and differences.

Value Without Wedge Applied (control; median, IQR)Wedge Average Value (experimental; median, IQR)Percentage Change (95% CI)
EKAM (Nm/kg) Affected leg0.380.35−4.84

KAAI (Nm/kg*s) Affected leg0.150.13−6.38
0.10 to 0.180.10 to 0.17(−8.89 to −2.64)
Unaffected leg0.140.13−11.45
0.10 to 0.180.08 to 0.17(−14.81 to −6.52)
  • IQR: interquartile range; EKAM: external knee adduction moment, normalized to subject mass; KAAI: knee adduction angular impulse, normalized to subject mass and time.
