Avoiding Knee Hyperextension
with Weight Shifting
Purpose of Exercise:
To assist a patient in learning to prevent knee
hyperextension with weight bearing.
Preparation/Positioning:
The patient should be in a standing
position with the necessary level of manual support and/or parallel
bars if needed. The patient should understand that the goal of this
intervention is to prevent excessive knee hyperextension. Apply
the Core:Tx transceiver to the patient’s knee with a dark gray strap.
Utilizing audio and visual feedback, encourage the patient to move
freely into flexion, but not to move past the targeted amount of
extension.
Set up the activity as shown below. Position the patient in the
desired position of extension and use the
Set Position
button. The
patient should try to demonstrate a controlled ability to stand and
weight-shift onto the affected LE without hyperextending beyond
this point.
