“…Landing technique in women's gymnastics, in terms of knee valgus and FPPA, has received limited research, even though the ACL has been reported to be the most common site of knee injury (Majewski et al, 2006 (Comfort et al, 2016). More importantly, these baseline values are greater than the normative FPPA values previously reported by Herrington and Munro (2010) who suggest that individuals who demonstrate FPPAs greater than 7-13° for a drop landing task may be at risk of injury to the patellofemoral joint or ACL Wilson & Davis, 2008).…”

“…This 2D method has been reported to provide reliable measures of FPPA for movements that occur in the frontal plane (Munro et al, 2012) and can be used to successfully screen people at risk of injuries that arise from dynamic knee valgus angles . More recently this method was also reported to be reliable in assessing FPPA during drop landings and landing during a tuck back somersault in female gymnasts (Comfort, Colclough, & Herrington, 2016).…”

“…Reduced knee flexion during landing is ideal for high scores based on the scoring criteria within gymnastics, but this may result in increased forces at landing and add to ACL strain, which may be a contributing factor to knee injuries (Marinsek, 2010;Utturkar et al, 2013). Additionally, high FPPA angles have been reported in young female gymnasts during jump landings and landing from a tuck back somersault (Comfort et al, 2016) which may partially be a compensatory strategy for the limited knee flexion in order to attenuate the landing forces.…”

“…While high FPPA have been reported in young female gymnasts (Comfort et al, 2016) currently no researchers appear to have investigated the effects of injury prevention training programs on FPPA in female gymnasts. This is surprising, considering the fact that gymnasts perform multiple landings, consisting of high loads, great heights, and frequent rotation of the body in excess of 200 times within the typical training week (Marinsek, 2010).…”

“…A single experimenter measured and calculated the angles. Calculation of the FPPA involved drawing a line from the marker at the anterior superior iliac spine and the marker at the middle of the tibiofemoral joint and another line from this point to the marker at the midpoint of the ankle malleoli, with the angle calculated via the software, in line with previous research(Comfort et al, 2016;Munro et al, 2012).…”

Comparative Analysis of the Effect of the Different Adaptations of the Squat Exercise on the Knee Frontal Plane Projection Angle

2020

Closed kinetic chain exercises have been employed in rehabilitation and muscle strengthening programs, such as squatting. During the movement of the squat dynamic valgus, a change that affects all kinematics of the lower limb, tends to become exacerbated, necessitating adaptations in order to minimize the biomechanical disorder. Although studies have shown the effectiveness of squatting exercises, there is a lack of evidence to demonstrate, comparatively, the effectiveness of different adaptations in the decrease of dynamic valgus. The objective of the study was to evaluate to identify the efficacy of different adaptations in squatting exercise in the reduction of dynamic valgus. Therefore, study volunteers (n = 30) performed three types of squats: free squatting, squatting with elastic band and squatting with verbal command. The dynamic valgus wasmeasured by the knee frontal plane projection angle during the squatting movements, through captured images and analyzed by the software Tracker and ImageJ. Despite more cases in women, in both sexes, free squatting presented greater cases of medicalization of the knee than in comparison to the other two adaptations. Although both squat adaptations presented positive results, only squatting with verbal command showed a significant reduction of the dynamic valgus pointing out that this is the best adaptation treated.

Resumo Exercícios de cadeia cinética fechada vêm sendo empregados em programas de reabilitação e fortalecimento muscular, como é o caso do agachamento. Durante o movimento de agachamento o valgo dinâmico, alteração que afeta toda cinemática do membro inferior, tende a se tornar exacerbado, sendo necessárias adaptações com o intuito de minimizar o distúrbio biomecânico. Embora estudos tenham mostrado a eficácia dos exercícios de agachamento, faltam evidências que demonstrem, comparativamente, a efetividade de diferentes adaptações na minimização do valgo dinâmico. O objetivo do estudo foi identificar a eficácia de diferentes adaptações na execução do exercício de agachamento na redução do valgo dinâmico. Para tanto, os voluntários do estudo (n=30) três tipos de agachamentos: agachamento livre, agachamento com banda elástica e agachamento com comando verbal. O valgo dinâmico foi mensurado mediante o ângulo de projeção no plano frontal do joelho durante os movimentos de agachamento, através de imagens capturadas e posteriormente analisadas pelos softwares Tracker e ImageJ. Apesar de mais casos em mulheres, em ambos os sexos, o agachamento livre apresentou maiores casos de medicalização do joelho do que nas outras duas adaptações. Embora ambas adaptações de agachamento apresentaram resultados positivos, apenas o agachamento com comando verbal apresentou redução significativa do valgo dinâmico, apontando ser esta a melhor adaptação tratada.

Pendahuluan: Peningkatan knee valgus pada Gerakan drop landing pemain basket dilaporkan sebagai faktor risiko prospektif pada cedera anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Knee valgus merupakan kondisi malaligament : abduksi knee berlebihan dengan kombinasi adduksi femoralis serta rotasi internal dan rotasi tibialis eksternal. Risiko terjadinya cedera knee mampu berpengaruh terhadap tingkat performa pemain basket saat latihan dan bermain. Maka dalam hal ini stabilitas knee penting dalam menjaga performa dan mengurangi risiko cedera. Dibutuhkan knee support berupa kinesio tape yang dapat digunakan sebagai pencegahan cedera, pemulihan, meningkatkan fungsional tubuh, memperbaiki pola gerak, dan meningkatkan performa atlet. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui efektivitas dari penggunaan kinesio tape dalam stabilitas knee saat drop landing performance pada pemain basket. Metode: Desain penelitian berupa pre-eksperimental melalui pendekatan “one group pre-test post-test” dengan jumlah responden 22 pemain basket SMA di kota Malang yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Frontal plane projection angle (FPPA) alat ukur yang digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi derajat knee valgus saat responden melakukan drop landing melalui rekaman 2D yang di olah dalam software Kinovea. Analisa data melalui uji Shapiro-wilk dan uji Wilcoxon. Hasil: Berdasarkan hasil penelitian tidak menunjukkan efektivitas penggunaan kinesio tape pada drop landing performance. Tidak ada perbedaan secara signifikan 0,871 (p> 0,05) yang menunjukkan pengaruh dari penggunaan kinesio tape pada pemain sehat dengan kaki dominan. Simpulan: Tidak terdapat efektivitas penggunaan kinesio tape terhadap drop landing performance pada pemain basket SMA di Kota Malang. Kata Kunci: drop landing, knee valgus, basket, kinesio tape
