Sandberg et al: Influence of Wearing a Tactical Harness on Three-Dimensional Thoracic Limb Kinematics
Veterinary and Comparative Orthopedics and Traumatology 2, 2024

🔍 Key Findings Summary

  • Tactical harness use altered kinematics in all forelimb joints
  • Elbow most affected: increased extension, internal rotation, abduction at walk and trot
  • Carpus: reduced flexion, increased abduction at walk
  • Shoulder: least affected, but showed reduced flexion and increased abduction during walk
  • Only significant ROM increases:
    • Shoulder frontal plane (22%)
    • Elbow transverse plane (19%) at walk
  • Results suggest potential functional limitations from harness use during duty
