Lumbar position sense with extreme lumbar angle.
Tasks involving flexed torso postures have a high incidence of low back injuries. Changes in the ability to sense and adequately control low back motion may play a role in these injuries. Previous studies examining position sense errors of the lumbar spine with torso flexion found significant increases in error with flexion. However, there has been little research on the effect of lumbar angle....
متن کاملLumbar position sense acuity during an electrical shock stressor
BACKGROUND Optimal motor control of the spine depends on proprioceptive input as a prerequisite for co-ordination and the stability of the spine. Muscle spindles are known to play an important role in proprioception. Animal experiments suggest that an increase in sympathetic outflow can depress muscle spindle sensitivity. As the muscle spindle may be influenced by sympathetic modulation, we hyp...
متن کاملExtreme lateral lumbar disc herniation.
A 60-year-old man presented with a three week history of low back pain and right sciatica after lifting a heavy weight. On examination, there was marked restriction of straight leg raising on the right side with a reduced knee jerk and impaired sensation in the right L3 and L4 dermatomes. The provisional diagnosis was L4 root compression by a herniated L3/4 disc. Myelography with water -soluble...
متن کاملPosition sense in the lumbar spine with torso flexion and loading.
Proprioception plays an important role in appropriate sensation of spine position, movement, and stability. Previous research has demonstrated that position sense error in the lumbar spine is increased in flexed postures. This study investigated the change in position sense as a function of altered trunk flexion and moment loading independently. Reposition sense of lumbar angle in 17 subjects w...
متن کاملLumbar Puncture in Neonates with Sepsis
Introduction: Infections are one of the main causes of death during childhood. Epidemiologic studies in Iran showed that the incidence of neonatal sepsis was 1.8% in 1995. Moreover, the incidence of neonatal meningitis is 0.2 to 0.4 in per 1,000 live births. The aim of this study was to determine the necessity of lumbar puncture (LP) in early neonatal sepsis. Methods: In a retrospective study, ...
