Embodiment Construction

[0079] "Electrical stimulation" refers to the application of electrical signals to soft tissues and nerves in the target area. Applying "vibrotactile stimulation" refers to applying a vibratory load to the soft tissues and nerves and mechanoreceptors of the target area.

[0080] Each of the systems, apparatus, and methods of the present disclosure has various innovative aspects, no single one of which is necessarily solely responsible for the desirable attributes of the present disclosure. The present disclosure describes devices, methods, and systems for (1) modifying or altering gait kinematics (or movement) via sensory augmentation and / or (2) modifying muscle activation patterns via increased motor learning To slow the development and / or reduce pain associated with knee OA, particularly during gait (eg, walking, running, stair climbing, etc.). In some embodiments, peripheral nerve stimulation is used in conjunction with monitoring gait dynamics and kinematics and / or muscle...

Abstract

The present disclosure describes methods for modifying or altering gait kinematics via sensory enhancement and / or modifying muscle activation patterns via enhanced motor learning in order to slow the development and / or alleviate pain associated with knee OA. Apparatus, methods and systems, particularly during gait (eg, walking, running, climbing stairs, etc.). Sensors can be used to measure gait parameters and characteristics as well as muscle activation patterns. Stimuli may be provided to individuals to facilitate learning new gait kinematics and muscle activation patterns.
