Effects of joint immobilization on standing balance.
We investigated the effect of joint immobilization on the postural sway during quiet standing. We hypothesized that the center of pressure (COP), rambling, and trembling trajectories would be affected by joint immobilization. Ten young adults stood on a force plate during 60 s without and with immobilized joints (only knees constrained, CK; knees and hips, CH; and knees, hips, and trunk, CT), w...
متن کاملDynamics Study of Ankle Joint during Quiet Standing Balance Control with Emphasis on Dominant and Non-dominant Lower Limb
Purpose: The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of dominant lower limb on the correlation between some of the dynamic variables of ankle joint and center of mass during quiet standing balance control. Methods: Twelve healthy females with no known neurological or musculoskeletal disorders, with the mean age of 26±3.5 years, participated in this study. Motion analysis system, force ...
متن کاملEffects of Using the Vibratory Orthosis on Standing Balance in Patients With Parkinson ’s Disease
Objectives: The authors of this paper hypothesized that vibration stimulation applied by a vibratory orthosis improves balance in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). In this study we evaluate this hypothesis. Methods & Materials: Fourteen PD patients (12 male and 2 female) with mean age of 59.9±9.1 (±SD) years were participated in this cross- sectional study. Using Biodex balance system,...
متن کاملEffects of vibrating insoles on standing balance in diabetic neuropathy.
This study investigated the effects on standing balance of random vibrations applied to the plantar side of the feet by vibrating insoles in subjects with neuropathy and nondisabled subjects. In four different conditions (eyes open or closed and with or without an attention-demanding task [ATD]), subjects with neuropathy secondary to diabetes mellitus (n = 17) and nondisabled subjects (n = 15) ...
متن کاملStanding on textured surfaces: effects on standing balance in healthy older adults.
BACKGROUND standing on textured surfaces or wearing textured shoe insoles can alter balance performance. This evidence, although inconclusive, offers a potential intervention for improving balance in older adults. This study explored the effect of standing on textured surfaces on double-limb balance in older adults and changes in muscle activity as a possible mechanism of effect. METHODS 50 h...
