Shoulder movements during the initial phase of learning manual wheelchair propulsion in able-bodied subjects.
BACKGROUND The kinetics and kinematics of the glenohumeral joints, and shoulder muscles activities during the initial phase of learning wheelchair propulsion by individuals with paraplegia have been partially described. But no studies carry out the kinematics of the upper-limb during the learning of non-constrained open field locomotion with a wheelchair. METHODS Ten subjects with no manual w...
متن کاملKinematics of sport wheelchair propulsion.
Eight international caliber wheelchair male athletes (3 basketball, 5 distance track) performed an all-out propulsion effort from a standing start for 10 seconds on a wheelchair ergometer. Comparisons between the basketball and track athletes on linear wheelchair and push rim velocity during the first 3 pushes and the peak value indicated that the basketball players had a significantly (p less ...
متن کاملComparison of neck and upper-limb muscle activities between able-bodied and paraplegic individuals during wheelchair propulsion on the ground
[Purpose] This study compared the muscle activities of the neck and upper-limb muscles between able-bodied individuals and persons with paraplegia during wheelchair propulsion on the ground. [Subjects and Methods] The muscle activities of the neck and upper-limb muscles of 8 normal individuals and 8 individuals with paraplegia were analyzed during wheelchair propulsion. The activities of the la...
متن کاملShoulder kinematics and kinetics during two speeds of wheelchair propulsion.
The primary objective of this study was to examine the kinematics and kinetics of the shoulder during wheelchair propulsion at a slow and moderate speed. Twenty-seven individuals with paraplegia propelled their wheelchairs at speeds of 0.9 m/s and 1.8 m/s while a motion analysis system captured movements of their upper limbs and SMART(Wheel)s simultaneously recorded their pushrim kinetics. Intr...
متن کاملAn Investigation of Bilateral Symmetry During Manual Wheelchair Propulsion
Studies of manual wheelchair propulsion often assume bilateral symmetry to simplify data collection, processing, and analysis. However, the validity of this assumption is unclear. Most investigations of wheelchair propulsion symmetry have been limited by a relatively small sample size and a focus on a single propulsion condition (e.g., level propulsion at self-selected speed). The purpose of th...
