Unloading brace

"Participants underwent one session of gait analysis. The experimental protocol was divided in four conditions, the control condition without brace (NO), and then three conditions with the different braces tested in a randomized order.~For each condition, the participant was fitted with the brace by the same experimenter and equipped with 19/20 retro-reflective markers (without/with brace) on the pelvis and the investigated leg for motion analysis. After a short recording in a fixed standing position (static trial), each participant carried out at least three barefoot walking trials of a few meters long at a self-selected pace. The walking trial was validated if a complete gait cycle occurred on the two 90cm x 90 cm force plates recording the ground reaction forces. After each condition, the participant had to assess knee pain."
