To compare the kinematics of lower limb joints between individuals with and without chronic ankle instability (CAI) during cross-turn and -cutting movements.Cross-sectional study.Motion analysis laboratory.Twelve subjects with CAI and twelve healthy controls.Hip flexion, adduction, and internal rotation, knee flexion, and ankle dorsiflexion and inversion angles were calculated in the 200 ms before...
While the majority of tremor-afflicted Parkinsonian (PD) patients suffer from rest tremors, which is not considered highly disabling, a portion of these PD patients also demonstrate action tremors that interfere with their daily lives. Two main considerations in designing an orthosis that aims at suppressing the tremor, are the frequency bands of the tremor and the joints tremor affects. Nine subjects,...
Introduction of successful telerehabilitation into the variety of techniques that are available to the therapist will forever change the field of rehabilitation. Accurate perception of the remote environment's mechanical properties and of stiffness in particular is extremely important for successful telerehabilitation. In the current study we present the framework for exploring perception of delayed...
A brief summary is given of conclusions derived from several investigations, including a study concerned with structural optimization of lower limb prostheses. The emphasis is on obtaining criteria for evaluation of human performance as well as understanding the compensatory function modification, which is primarily of psychological nature. Major conclusions are: (1) In joint realignment procedures...
