Foot motion in children shoes: a comparison of barefoot walking with shod walking in conventional and flexible shoesSebastian Wolf
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, University of Heidelberg, Schlierbacher Landstrasse 200a, 69118, Heidelberg, Germany
Gait Posture 27:51-9. 2008..The present study shows that slimmer and more flexible children's shoes do not change foot motion as much as conventional shoes and therefore should be recommended not only for children in this age but for healthy children in general...
Dynamic assist by carbon fiber spring AFOs for patients with myelomeningoceleSebastian I Wolf
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, University of Heidelberg, Germany
Gait Posture 28:175-7. 2008..Further studies are needed to assess the clinical outcome and to prove the functional benefit of this kind of orthosis...

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Heidelberg University Hospital, Schlierbacher Landstrasse 200 A, 69118 Heidelberg, Germany
Gait Posture 32:191-8. 2010..However, in the adapted mode, patients reported feeling safer during ramp descent, thus indicating that there might be other safety related measures such as toe-clearance or coefficient of friction influencing this perception...
Effects of a postoperative resistive exercise program on the knee extension and flexion torque in children with cerebral palsy: a randomized clinical trialDimitrios Patikas
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Heidelberg, Germany
Arch Phys Med Rehabil 87:1161-9. 2006..To investigate the effects of resistive exercise on the knee extension and flexion torque production during the rehabilitation period after multilevel orthopedic surgery...

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Heidelberg Hospital, Schlierbacher Landstr 200A, 69118 Heidelberg, Germany
Med Biol Eng Comput 47:85-92. 2009..86. The proposed method offers the possibility to conduct new experiments, such as the investigation of proprioception in climbing stairs or in the presence of obstacles...
Effects of a postoperative strength-training program on the walking ability of children with cerebral palsy: a randomized controlled trialDimitrios Patikas
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Heidelberg, Germany
Arch Phys Med Rehabil 87:619-26. 2006..To investigate the effect of a postoperative strength-training program on the walking of children with cerebral palsy (CP)...
Development of knee function after hamstring lengthening as a part of multilevel surgery in children with spastic diplegia: a long-term outcome studyThomas Dreher
Department of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, Heidelberg University Clinics, Heidelberg, Germany
J Bone Joint Surg Am 94:121-30. 2012..However, evidence for the effectiveness of hamstring lengthening to correct flexed knee gait is scant because of small and inhomogeneous case series, different surgical techniques, and short follow-up...
Kinematics and kinetics with an adaptive ankle foot system during stair ambulation of transtibial amputeesMerkur Alimusaj
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Germany
Gait Posture 30:356-63. 2009..Therefore, despite its additional weight compared to a conventional prosthetic ankle, the Proprio-Foot should be beneficial to active TT amputees whose knee musculature strength does not constitute a handicap...
A new kinematic model of the upper extremity based on functional joint parameter determination for shoulder and elbowOliver Rettig
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Heidelberg, Schlierbacher Landstr 200A, 69118 Heidelberg, Germany
Gait Posture 30:469-76. 2009..Differences between the computed angles and the angles obtained directly with the goniometer remained below +/-5 degrees for joint angles up to 120 degrees and +/-10 degrees above 120 degrees...
The use of pressure mapping for seating posture characterisation in children with cerebral palsyLaetitia Fradet
Department of Orthopaedics, University of Heidelberg, Schlierbacher Landstraße 200a, Heidelberg, Germany

Proprioception in total, hemi- and reverse shoulder arthroplasty in 3D motion analyses: a prospective studyPhilip Kasten
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Heidelberg, Schlierbacher Landstr 200A, 69118, Heidelberg, Germany
Int Orthop 33:1641-7. 2009..Proprioception, assessed by the AAR test, remained unchanged or deteriorated six months after shoulder arthroplasty. This might be related to the reduced pain or to the relatively short follow-up period...
