Cerebral palsy (CP) children present complex and heterogeneous motor disorders that cause gait deviations.Clinical analysis (CGA) is needed to identify, understand support the management of deviations in CP. CGA assesses a large amount quantitative data concerning patients' characteristics, such as video, kinematics, kinetics, electromyography plantar pressure data.Common CP can be grouped into patterns spastic hemiplegia (drop foot, equinus with different knee positions) diplegia (true...
Slawinski, J, Bonnefoy, A, Levêque, JM, Ontanon, G, Riquet, Dumas, R, and Chèze, L. Kinematic kinetic comparisons of elite well-trained sprinters during sprint start. J Strength Cond Res 24(4): 896-905, 2010-The purpose this study was to compare the main kinematic, kinetic, dynamic parameters starting block phase 2 subsequent steps. Six (10.06-10.43 s/100 m) 6 (11.01-11.80 equipped with 63 passive reflective markers performed 4 maximal 10 m starts on an indoor track. An opto-electronic...
Study Design. Test–retest study. Objective. This study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of rasterstereography in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) a major curve Cobb angle (CA) between 10° 40° for frontal, sagittal, transverse parameters. Summary Background Data. Previous studies evaluating concluded that this technique had good accuracy compared radiographs high intra- interday healthy volunteers. To best our knowledge, have not been assessed AIS patients....
The aim of this study was to test the influence 3 different horizontal distances between blocks (bunched, medium and elongated) on velocity centre mass (V<sub>CM</sub>) kinetic energy (KE) body segments whole body. 9 well-trained sprinters performed 4 maximal 10 m sprints. An opto-electronic Motion Analysis<sup>®</sup> system (12 digital cameras 250 Hz) used collect 3D trajectories 63 markers during starting block phase. results demonstrated that elongated start, compared bunched or induced...
Few studies have focused on the effect of posture during sprint start. The aim this study was to measure modification horizontal distance between blocks start three dimensional (3D) joint angular velocity. Nine trained sprinters started using different starting positions (bunched, medium and elongated). They were equipped with 63 passive reflective markers, an opto-electronic Motion Analysis system used collect 3D marker trajectories. During pushing phase blocks, norm velocity (NJAV), Euler...
Background: Congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV) is a relatively common pediatric orthopaedic disorder and frequent cause of disability in adult populations. The Ponseti method has emerged as the generally preferred for treating children with CTEV. Strict adherence to this technique’s basic principles critical achieving favorable outcomes. In 2013, our institution decided that every case CTEV would be treated by single dedicated medical team. present study aimed compare treatment outcomes...
The aim of this study was to compare the kinetic and kinematic parameters standing crouch sprint starts. Parallel starts (PS), false (FS), jump (JS) (3PS) were compared. Eighteen participants performed each start on a force plate six infrared cameras captured three-dimensional coordinates 36 retro-reflective markers. Performance during five-metre (T5m) analysed. Duration phase (Tstart), mean values horizontal total ground reaction forces (GRFs) (Fx_mean Ftot_mean), ratio (RF), maximal power...
