First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 29 times
Summary
This study tests if people with knee osteoarthritis can learn to change how they use a calf muscle while walking, using gentle buzzes as feedback. The goal is to reduce stress on the knee joint. About 31 participants will try this training on a treadmill or over ground. Researchers will use motion capture and computer models to measure if the new walking pattern actually lowers knee forces.
