  1. The Role of Exercise on Hip Deformities: Femoral Acetabular Impingement (FAI) Olivia Venezia, YSP participant, Revere High School YoussrAttia, YSP participant, Al Noor Academy Amanda Anderson, Undergraduate, Northeastern University Professor Shefelbine, Mechanical/Industrial Engineering, Northeastern University

  2. What is FAI? • bone spurs develop on the femoral head • prevent normal motion of the hip • eventually can cause osteoarthritis of the hip

  3. Who gets FAI? • elite child athletes (> 8 hours / week) in certain sports • hockey players • soccer players • basketball players

  4. Wolff’s Law • Structure and shape of bones will be altered over time in response to forces placed on them.

  5. Hypothesis Performing repetitive motions during intense training exerts a load on the femoral head and acetabulum eventually causing FAI.

  6. Objective • Measure motion pervasively • Identify femoral shapes

  7. Measuring pervasively • Mechanomyogram (MMG) • 3 axis accelerometer • 3 axis gyroscope • World Congress of Biomechanics

  8. Measuring pervasively • 3 axis accelerometer • 3 axis gyroscope

  9. Measuring pervasively Walking Quickly Accelerometer g Gyroscope deg/s Time (seconds) X plane Y plane Z plane

  10. Measuring pervasively Up Stairs Accelerometer g Gyroscope deg/s Time (seconds) X plane Y plane Z plane

  11. Measuring pervasively Jumping Jacks Accelerometer g Gyroscope deg/s Time (seconds) X plane Y plane Z plane

  12. Evolution of the Hip Coxa recta Coxa rotunda • Coxa recta - run and jump • Coxa rotunda - swim and climb Horse Walrus

  13. Characterizing shape • CT scans • Rapid prototype

  14. Characterizing shape

  15. Future Applications • Pilot data for grant • Focus groups include • Hockey player • Gymnasts • Dancers

  16. Acknowledgements • Center for STEM Education • Young Scholars Program & Team • Claire Duggan - Director • Kassi Stein, Jake Holstein, Chi Tse- YSP Coordinators • Richard Woodward- Designed sensors • Professor Shefelbine • Amanda Anderson • Sabah Nobakhti
