On the 5th October the project partners of the Children’s Knees Study met at the Institute of Sport Science of the University of Vienna to discuss the project progress and future prospects. The planning and refinement stage of the project has finished and first baseline measurements were performed, as well as the training programm was […]
David Artner presented the Children’s Knees Study at the 22. Sportwissenschaftlicher Hochschultag of the German Society of Sport Sciences in Mainz. In the course of the working group ‘Movement, Walking & Running’, the trial protocol with focus on the biomechanical aspects of the project was introduced to the audience. All of the resources dissertation helps […]
The Children’s Knees trial design was registered in the trial registry database of Clinical Trials under the registration number NCT02545764. The study can be found on clinicaltrials.gov. Twice every year, on the start of a new school year and on the first week of a new year, I revisit the archive and repurpose those materials […]
Dr. Brian Horsak and David Artner MSc participated on the Biomechanics Summer Course 2015 from 21. to 24. July organized by the Institute of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics at the University of Ulm. The course consisted of 8 theoretical lectures and 12 practical laboratory exercises. The participants gained experience in all basic fields of biomechanics […]

The trial protocol for the Children’s Knees study was accepted to be presented for the “Sportwissenschaflicher Hochschultag 2015” at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany. The conference will be held from 30th September 2015 – 2nd October 2015. David Artner will attend the congress and is going to present the trial protocol. The features […]
To allow the measurement of ground reaction forces during stair walking, a special staircase element was constructed. This element can be mounted directly on one of the force plates and together with the staircase of the Rehabilitation Center Weißer Hof builds the final staircase that will be used during the whole biomechanical study. A self- […]
The development of the biomechanical measurement setup is constantly moving forward. A proper staircase construction was acquired from the Rehabilitation Center Weißer Hof in Klosterneuburg and will be used for all upcoming gait analyses at the Biomechanics Laboratory of the USZ Vienna. The first staircase element will be placed directly on one of the force […]
