Filter by:Improvement of proprioception in athletes has been found to be effective in preventing fear of movement. The importance of these parameters has not been sufficiently emphasized in volleyball players. In addition, the relationship between upper extremity proprioception and the sense of touch, which is an important component of the somatosensory system, and common anxiety states in athletes has not been evaluated. Therefore, the aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between shoulder joint proprioception and psychometric parameters, kinesiophobia and palmar tactile sensation in volleyball players.
To determine the combined effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and electrical muscle stimulation on spasticity and hand function in stroke patients.
With the change in lifestyle, most physical tasks are now performed by machines. As a result, sitting has become the most common learning posture and office posture, and cervical and lumbar spondylosis are becoming increasingly prevalent in younger people. One-third of life is devoted to sleep, and bad sleeping posture can place incorrect strain on the cervical and lumbar spine, resulting in irreversible and detrimental repercussions if not treated seriously. Sleep disorders have become an important public health concern because they can have detrimental effects on both mental and physical health. A pillow can give adequate support for the head and neck and assist sleepers in maintaining proper neck and thoracic curvature. Studies have demonstrated that a comfortable sleeping pillow helps relax the neck muscles, hence facilitating sleep, and efficiently alleviate pain in the neck, shoulders, back, and head. There is consensus among researchers that supporting the natural lordotic curve of the cervical spine is necessary to achieve longer periods of deep sleep. In addition, a pillow can improve sleep quality by cooling the head, lowering body temperature, reducing sweating or slowing the heart rate during sleep. However, the level of evidence to support these claims is so far limited. It has been claimed by pillow manufacturers that many design-related pillow parameters are effective in improving sleep quality and reducing neck pain. However, most of these recommendations are based on personal experience. This study recommends the most suitable pillow for people in forward head postures based on the body pressure distribution of the head, neck and upper body. The proposed pillows were evaluated in two parameters: comfort and support.
The objective of the study is to compare, with or without wearing an elastic proprioceptive knee brace, the functional proprioceptive capacity of the knee in patients suffering from proprioceptive deficit.
This project assesses the feasibility, reliability, and validity of the PROMT in children with a UMN lesion. The study questions are: is the newly developed PROMT a feasible, reliable, and valid tool to assess lower limb proprioception in children with UMN lesions? Does the PROMT differ between children with UMN lesion and controlled neurotypically developing peers? Further, does the proprioception modalities assessed with the PROMT correlate with motor function in this group of children?
This study aime to investigate the effects of balance and proprioception exercises using two different methods (classical balance training and Balance System™ SD) in addition to strengthening exercises on dynamic balance, pain, functional status and quality of life in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a non-progressive neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by posture and movement disorders as a result of damage to the immature brain for any reason before, during or after birth.In addition to tone, postural and neuromuscular control in children with Cerebral Palsy; Problems are also observed in communication skills, perceptual and cognitive systems and sensory systems.
To determine effects of proprioceptive activities on hand function in chronic stroke patients
This study aimed to evaluate the association between the isokinetic knee strength and/or proprioception performance with the functional performance on the functional Hop-tests and Y-balance test. This study included 20 healthy individuals who performed an isokinetic assessment of knee proprioception (joint position sense, JPS and threshold to detection of passive motion, TDPM) and flexors/extensors strength. At the same time, they performed a functional testing consisting of three Hop-tests (single, triple and cross-over) and the Lower Quarter Y-Balance Test (YBT-LQ). We tested the correlation between the isokinetic and functional performances, and limb symmetry indexes.
In practice, a single test is used to quantify thumb proprioception. Previous studies have found a decrease in joint position sense (JPS) and force sense (FS) in patients diagnosis of thumb carpometacarpal osteoarthritis, but no correlation have been stabilize between JPS, FS and pain intensity perceived by the patient during activity daily life (ADL). The goal of the study is compared joint position error (JPE) with joint force sense error (JFSE) in subjects with carpometacarpal (CMC) joint osteoarthritis and investigated a possible correlation between thumb pain intensity and thumb proprioception in patients with CMC joint OA.
