Study Summary
Rationale: Roughly 14 million adults aged 60 or older (10% male/13% female) in the United States experience symptoms of knee osteoarthritis (OA). Knee OA pain progressively impacts aging, reducing mobility and increasing morbidity. Nonsurgical self-management of knee OA includes exercise to promote proper knee mechanics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), cortisone injections, and weight loss to reduce pain and retain function. As OA has no cure, self-management progresses to \~1 million joint replacements per year. Critically, home-based devices are lacking for specifically training the low-level proprioceptive and neuromuscular circuitry for proper knee mechanics in a safe, focused, mechanistic way. Such devices would supplement exercises for strength, mobility, and whole-body loading and movement. Initially considered a wear-and-tear condition, knee OA is now understood as a complex disease involving inflammatory responses to mechanical loading and neuromuscular feedback loops among pain, joint damage, and dynamic loading. Home-based exercises remain a primary nonpharmacological and nonsurgical approach to managing chronic pain in OA that fundamentally disrupts proprioception and neuromuscular control of the joint, which accelerates articular degeneration. Neuromuscular Dynamics, LLC has developed a simple, safe, quick, and effective Leg Dexterity System that is portable, wireless, and coupled to HIPAA-compliant cloud analytics. A seated participant uses their foot to compress a platform atop a slender spring, which becomes unstable as it begins to buckle at low forces. The participant must then control their leg dexterity (i.e., via short-latency sensorimotor circuits) to stabilize the unstable dynamic foot-ground interactions. A tablet computer connected to the device provides feedback during use and uploads the participant's activity data to the server for analysis and reporting, accessible to users and clinicians.
