متن کاملPostural control during laparoscopic surgical tasks.
BACKGROUND Balance control during standing is essential while performing surgery. The postural sway must be controlled to enhance movement accuracy. Postural control was compared between novices and experts during standardized laparoscopic tasks. METHODS Seven novices with limited exposition to laparoscopy were compared with 7 expert surgeons. The subjects were requested to perform 4 laprosco...
متن کاملThe relationship between postural control and fine manual dexterity.

The objectives of this study were: (1) to examine the relationship between the adult version of the Nine-Hole Peg Test and the "children's version" in order to establish construct validity for the latter, and (2) to investigate the ...
متن کاملSaccades Improve Postural Control: A Developmental Study in Normal Children
INTRODUCTION Dual-task performance is known to affect postural stability in children. This study focused on the effect of oculomotor tasks like saccadic eye movements on postural stability, studied in a large population of children by recording simultaneously their eye movements and posture. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-five healthy children from 5.8 to 17.6 years old were examined. All child...
