Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Other | Force output | measure output force during elevation of the arms in a 45° flexed shoulder angle | before and after 4 minute during fatigue inducing protocol | |
Primary | Work accuracy | The number of errors is tracked | During 2 minutes overhead work | |
Primary | Work pace | Time to completion is tracked | During 2 minutes overhead work | |
Secondary | Surface electromyography | Cometa (Mini Wave) sensors with Ambu (BlueSensor) electrodes will be used to collect electromyographic data conform the SENIAM guidelines. The muscles that will be monitored are: deltoideus anterior, deltoideus medialis, deltoideus posterior, pectoralis major, latissimus dorsi, brachioradialis, biceps brachii, triceps brachii, trapezius descendens, infraspinatus, supraspinatus, flexor carpi radialis, serratus anterior on the right side of the body. The locations of the sensors will be prepared by shaving, abrasion with sandpaper and cleaning with alcohol. To allow relative expression of muscle activity, maximal voluntary contractions (MVC) of each muscle that is being monitored will be collected. The average of the maximal activity out of the best two out of three contractions will serve as the MVC value. The outcomes will be the activities of the muscles (as a percentage of the MVC) monitored during the tests. | During 2 minutes overhead work | |
Secondary | Kinematic smoothness of movement | Inetrial Measurement Units will be used to track how smoothly the overhead work is completed. Smoothness is determined by the Spectral Arc method. | During 2 minutes overhead work | |
Secondary | Workload | NASA TLX questionnaire for workload | After 2 minutes of overhead work |
