Effect of various parameters on Quadriceps angle in adult Indian population

Abstract: Background: The purpose of this study was to compare the values of quadriceps angle (Q angle) in relation to age, weight, height, gender, bilateral and postural variations, and strenuous activities on the weight bearing limbs in order to observe its variability. Materials and methods: A total of 450 adult healthy volunteers (150 male students, 150 female students and 150 male labourers) were enrolled in this cross sectional study. Each volunteer had its height, weight and Q angles measured. Q angle was measure… Show more

“…The Q‐angle was measured in the barefoot standing posture with the knee in full extension using a goniometer. When the goniometer axis is aligned over the center of the patella, the Q‐angle is formed by two lines: one line is from the anterior superior iliac spine to the center of the patella, and the other line is from the center of the patella to the tibial tuberosity …”

“…28 Selain itu bentuk anatomis pada wanita yang memiliki panggul lebih lebar dan femur yang lebih pendek, menyebabkan sudut mekanis yang diterima oleh sendi patella lebih besar, yang mengakibatkan terjadinya penurunan dari keseimbangan yang memperbesar kejadian cedera pada wanita. 29 Pada laki-laki, ukuran panggul lebih sempit dan panjang femur lebih panjang yang berimbas pada Q-angle yang mengakibatkan laki-laki memiliki keseimbangan yang lebih baik ketika bertumpu pada satu kaki. 30…”

“…35 Anatomi tubuh yang berperan dalam pembentukan Q-angle adalah panjang femur dan lebar dari pelvis. 29 Hal inilah yang menunjukkan bahwa perempuan, yang memiliki pelvis lebih lebar dan femur yang lebih pendek, memiliki Q-angle yang lebih besar jika dibandingkan dengan laki-laki. 30 Semakin besar Q-angle dapat meningkatkan ketidakseimbangan individu dan meningkatkan beban yang ditampu oleh sendi patella yang dapat meningkatkan kejadian cedera pada atlit.…”
