Relationship between Quasi-static Sitting and Standing Postural Stability Measures in Healthy Individuals: a Preliminary Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
INTRODUCTION Recent evidences suggest that sitting balance upon admission may accurately predict the ambulatory capacity at discharge from intensive functional rehabilitation among individuals with neurological impairments. However, the link existing between sitting and standing postural stability abilities and sensorimotor regulation mechanisms has not been confirmed to date. The aim of this study was to determine the strength of the association between quasi-static postural stability measures obtained in sitting (supported and unsupported) and standing positions in healthy individuals.

Comparison of Static Postural Stability Performance Among Adolescents with Different Foot Types
The foot represents a small base of support as an important biomechanical parameter that the body maintains balance. It is assumed that postural stability performance could be affected by even minor alteration in the support surface in upright standing position. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine if individuals with different foot types would demonstrate differences in static...
متن کاملUnsupported eyes closed sitting and quiet standing share postural control strategies in healthy individuals.
The study aimed to (1) compare postural stability between sitting and standing in healthy individuals and (2) define center-of-pressure (COP) measures during sitting that could also explain standing stability. Fourteen healthy individuals randomly maintained (1) two short-sitting positions with eyes open or closed, with or without hand support, and (2) one standing position with eyes open with ...

Introduction & Objective: It is known that postural control performance in upright standing position could be affected by abnormal posture alignment. Despite the fact that kyphosis is one of the most common spine abnormality, the effect of thoracic curve abnormality at sagittal plane on postural stability has received little attention to date. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to invest...

Introduction: Musculoskeletal disorders of the neck and shoulders are the most common reported complaints in sitting occupations such as dentistry. These disorders, in addition to create pain, can cause the impairment of postural control mechanisms. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the postural stability disorder and the forward head posture (FHP) in the dentist...
