Data Visualization

The charts above illustrate the progression of varus and valgus angles over time. A downward trend indicates improvement in alignment.

Detailed Analysis

Varus Angle Analysis

The varus angles for both left and right knees show a consistent downward trend throughout the assessment period:

Left Varus: Initial measurement of 5.3° reduced to 4.15° by the final assessment, representing a 21.7% improvement.
Right Varus: Initial measurement of 4.71° reduced to 3.99° by the final assessment, representing a 15.29% improvement.

The left knee showed a more significant improvement compared to the right, which may be attributed to the higher initial varus angle in the left knee providing more room for correction.

Valgus Angle Analysis

Similarly, the valgus angles for both knees demonstrated improvement:

Left Valgus: Initial measurement of 3.65° reduced to 2.89° by the final assessment, representing a 20.82% improvement.
Right Valgus: Initial measurement of 3.42° reduced to 3.08° by the final assessment, representing a 9.94% improvement.

The improvement in valgus angles was slightly less pronounced than in varus angles, which is consistent with the lower initial valgus measurements.

Clinical Significance

The observed improvements in both varus and valgus angles are clinically significant and suggest effective therapeutic intervention. The consistent downward trend across all measurements indicates that the treatment protocol has been successful in improving knee alignment.

The notes from each assessment session corroborate this finding, with observations of "significant improvement" and "positive trend" in later sessions.

Recommendations

Based on the analysis of the varus and valgus angle data, the following recommendations are made:

Continue with the current therapeutic approach but at a reduced frequency as suggested in the penultimate assessment.
Implement a maintenance program to ensure that the improvements in knee alignment are sustained over time.
Consider additional biomechanical assessment to evaluate the impact of improved knee alignment on overall gait and functional mobility.
Schedule a follow-up assessment in 3 months to monitor long-term outcomes.

Conclusion

Subject Control 6 has demonstrated significant improvement in both varus and valgus knee angles over the 4-month assessment period. The consistent downward trend in all measurements suggests effective therapeutic intervention and good patient compliance.

The overall improvement percentages (Left Varus: 21.7%, Right Varus: 15.29%, Left Valgus: 20.82%, Right Valgus: 9.94%) indicate successful outcomes that are likely to translate to improved functional mobility and reduced risk of future knee-related issues.
