The Canadian Neurological Scale (CNS) was designed to monitor mentation and motor functions in stroke patients. We assessed its validity reliability on a group of 157 patients with diagnosis acute cerebrovascular accident. determined by (1) correlating scale items total score the standard neurologic examination; (2) exploring scale9s predictive power different end points at 6 months—the initial CNS significant predictor outcome; (3) showing that had higher correlation coefficients...
Changes in sensorimotor function and increased trunk muscle fatigability have been identified patients with chronic low back pain (cLBP). This study assessed the control of force production conditions without local erector spinae vibration evaluated influence fatigue on control.Twenty non-specific cLBP 20 healthy participants were asked to perform submaximal isometric extension torque stimulation, before after a extensor protocol. Constant error (CE), variable (VE) as well absolute (AE) peak...
Most studies on spinal manipulation learning demonstrate the relevance of including motor strategies in chiropractic curricula. Two outcomes practice are production movement an efficient manner and improved capability learners to evaluate their own performance. The goals this study were if expertise is associated with increased proficiency error detection skills force application during a high-velocity low-amplitude related expertise.Three groups students 1 group expert chiropractors...
Vibration is known to alter proprioceptive afferents and create a tonic vibration reflex. The control of force its variability are often considered determinants motor performance neuromuscular control. However, the effect on paraspinal muscle production remains be determined. Twenty-one healthy adults were asked perform isometric trunk flexion extension torque at 60% their maximal voluntary contraction, under three different conditions: no vibration, frequencies 30 Hz 80 Hz. Eighteen...
Two potential interventions for enhancing lumbar stability are to actively increase abdominal muscle activity, either through the drawing-in maneuver (ADIM) or bracing, and passively stiffness using a lumbosacral orthosis (LSO).To compare in after 2 active (ADIM versus bracing) 1 passive intervention (LSO), evaluate combined effect of (abdominal interventions.In this experimental comparative study, stiffness, surrogate measure stability, was estimated 25 healthy individuals during 7 trunk...
