Filter by:The main aim of this study is to unravel the biomechanics of postural balance reactions during head-motion perturbed standing and walking in older adults who fall, while integrating the influence of frailty, sensory functioning and cognitive processing.
The main purpose of this study will be to assess the consistency and reliability of measurements made using the Vicon three-plane gait analysis device (Vicon Motion Capture System Ltd, Oxford, UK) and a mobile application based on image recognition technology with the help of artificial intelligence.
Pelvic orientations observed in the pelvis during quiet standing position the standard orientation of the pelvis, causing pelvic tilt, pelvic obliquity and pelvic rotation. There is a need to understand the relationship between these orientation disorders and gait. This is because the orientation of the pelvis both in standard standing posture and during gait is an integral part of physiotherapy assessment due to the various problems associated with abnormal pelvic position, including musculoskeletal disorders of the lumbar spine, pelvis, hips and knees. The aim of this study was to describe the morphology of pelvic orientation during static standing posture in an asymptomatic young Turkish population aged 19 to 29 years and to examine the relationship between morphologic changes and changes in pelvic tilt, pelvic obliquity and pelvic rotation angles during gait.
The main purpose of this study was the assessment of whole-body vibration warm-up, modified drop jumps, and combination of both on the range of motion of dorsiflexion in the ankle joint and running time. 16 recreationally active runners performed 4 different warm-up variants one week apart: 5 sets of 30 s calf raises on the platform but without vibration (CTRL), the same as CTRL group but with vibration with 30 s rest intervals between sets (WBV), 6 drop jumps with a 30 s rest interval between sets (DJ); last group was combination of both WBV and DJ groups (WBV+DJ). The study included muscle flexibility tests for the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles performed before the warm-up, 3 minutes after warm-up and immediately after a 3000 m run on a treadmill. The running time was measured and the run had to be completed in the shortest possible time. Additionally, in the third week of the study there were performed static and dynamic foot measurements immediately before and after a 3000 m treadmill run. The main purpose of that gait analysis was to assess the impact of a 3km run on plantar pressure patterns and gait parameters in recreational runners.
The study is randomized and single -blinded. Ethical approval is taken from ethical committee of Riphah International university Lahore.Participants who will meet criteria will be requested to give verbal consent and to sign written consent form. After signing consent form participants will be allocated to the group A and Group B by using computerized generated randomization. Group A will receive ultrasound then Active release technique while group B will receive ultrasound and Positional release technique for 4 weeks. Treatment sessions will be 12 sessions, 3 sessions per week on alternative days for 4 weeks
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the applicability and effectiveness of an aquatic rehabilitation training program with a conventional land-based rehabilitation program in terms of lower extremity biomechanics and knee function in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR) patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does aquatic rehabilitation accelerate the recovery of gait symmetry and muscle function in patients after ACLR？ - Previous studies have not uncovered the training characteristics of aquatic rehabilitation, which allow for training movements that cannot be performed on land, and it is unknown whether these different training movement characteristics are more effective for patients with ACLR. Participants were randomly divided into an aquatic rehabilitation group (AR) and a land-based rehabilitation group (LR), and each group performed 70-90 minutes of training per session for a total of 6 sessions. This included warm-up activities, mobility training, strength training, functional exercises, and finishing activities. Each training session was conducted 1-2 days apart, 2-3 sessions per week, and the training was completed within 2-3 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of real-time gait biofeedback delivered over a 6-week period on early markers of FastOA and conduct 6-week and 6-month follow-up assessments in anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed patients.
The aim of this study was to investigate MIC and non-MIC prostheses in terms of gait pattern and energy consumption in above-the-knee amputee patients.
As people walk and interact with objects such as when opening a door, their movements make sounds. It is possible that these sounds are also used as feedback to stabilize and adapt movement. There is some evidence for such a connection between the auditory and motor systems in activities of daily living, yet the empirical work is insufficient because the role of the auditory system in movement is a relatively neglected topic. The objective of this study is to address this gap. The study will also evaluate the potential for improvements in movement stability and variability by restricting or augmenting the auditory feedback from the participants' footstep sounds.
Falls during walking are common in people with Parkinson's Disease (PD). Fall risk can be attributed in part to the loss of automaticity in walking and an increased reliance on sensory cues, such as the input from the balance organ. In this project the investigators want to assess the effectiveness of rehabilitation training aiming to improve this vestibular input. The effects of a visual perturbation training in a virtual reality environment will be compared to conventional treadmill training.
