Clinical Trial Summary

Motor imagery is defined as a dynamic mental process of an action, without its real motor execution. Action observation training consists of watching an action performed by someone else. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of motor imagery and action observation combined with a hand grip strength program on strength gains in asymptomatic participants. The secondary objective was to assess the influence of motor imagery and action observation training combined with a hand grip strength program on electromyographic activity and intramuscular oxygenation of the forearm muscles.

Mental Practise
They made a mental task to produce a neurophysiological activation of the brain areas related to the planning and execution of voluntary movement in a manner that resembles how the action is performed in reality in combination with real exercises.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary The hand grip strength The hand grip strength in kilograms was assessed using a Jamar dynamometer with the standard protocols for hand grip training. The measurements with the Jamar dynamometer present excellent test-retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] = 0.81-0.99) for preferred and nonpreferred hands in men and excellent test-retest reliability (ICC = 0.83-1.0) for preferred and nonpreferred hands in women. The Jamar Dynamometer presents excellent intra-rater reliability (ICC = 0.94 and 0.98) and excellent inter-rater reliability (ICC = 0.98 for right and left handgrip strength). Change in hand grip strength after 72 hours post-intervention
Secondary Intramuscular oxygenation The intramuscular oxygenation of the extensor muscles of the forearm was measured with the Moxy Monitor System. The Moxy sensor is placed over the muscle bellies of the extensor carpi radialis longus and the extensor carpi radialis brevis and measures the intramuscular oxygenation through a continuous infrared light emission. Change in Intramuscular oxygenation after 72 hours post-intervention
Secondary Electromyographic activity The electromyographic activity of the extensor muscles of the forearm was measured on the bellies of the extensor carpi radialis longus and the extensor carpi radialis brevis, placing the two electrodes in each of the muscle bellies, and a fifth electrode over the olecranon, which acts as a grounding. The Physioplux system was used for muscle contraction capture. Change in Electromyographic activity after 72 hours post-intervention
