简要总结
Dynamic knee valgus (DDV) is an erroneous movement pattern of the lower limb that occurs in multiple planes. It results from a combination of hip joint adduction, femoral anteversion, knee abduction and external tibial torsion .
详细描述
Dynamic knee valgus (DDV) is an erroneous movement pattern of the lower limb that occurs in multiple planes. It results from a combination of hip joint adduction, femoral anteversion, knee abduction and external tibial torsion . DDV is also referred to as a mechanism in which the knee joint moves medially relative to the hip and foot with the centre fixed to the ground.

结局指标
主要结局
Frontal Plane Projection Angle (FPPA)
时间窗: 6 weeks
FPPA is measured as the angle between a line drawn from the marked point on the proximal thigh to the knee joint and another line extending from the knee joint to the ankle during maximum knee flexion. A 2D analysis is performed through single-leg squat (SLS), vertical jump (VJ), and single-leg landing (SLL). An increase of 10° or more in FPPA during a single-leg squat is categorized as "Observable Dynamic Knee Valgus (DKV)."
Lower Extremity Clinical Measurements
时间窗: 6 weeks
Clinical measurements help assess the functional performance of the lower extremities and prevent injuries. Key parameters include Q-angle, hip anteversion angle, tibial torsion, ankle dorsiflexion, and rearfoot angle. Standardized tests such as goniometer-based Q-angle measurement, Craig's test for hip anteversion, and subtalar joint neutral positioning for dorsiflexion are utilized.
Balance Evaluation
时间窗: 6 weeks
Static balance was assessed with the Single Leg Stance Test (SLST), while dynamic balance was evaluated using the Y Balance Test (YBT) in three directions: anterior, posteromedial, and posterolateral.
Proprioception Assessment
时间窗: 6 weeks
Proprioception was evaluated using the Active Joint Position Sense (AJPS) test, which measures the ability to replicate a target angle. Measurements were conducted with a Baseline digital goniometer, and angular deviation was recorded to determine accuracy.
