Neurologic Clinics, 1987
Three measures of lower extremity function were compared in a homogenous population of ALS patients. Isokinetic dynamometry was shown to be a sensitive tool for change in strength over time. It demonstrated positive correlations with gait velocity as well as other behavioral measures. Manual muscle tests were relatively insensitive and no more reliable

Relationship Between Isokinetic Muscle Strength and Functional Tests in Chronic Ankle Instability.
Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2019Isokinetic muscle strength measurements and functional tests are usually performed to evaluate ankle condition in chronic ankle instability (CAI), yet there is no clear demonstration of the relationship between isokinetic muscle strength and functional ...

Isokinetic exercise in rehabilitation
Applied Ergonomics, 1991Since isokinetic equipment was first designed in the late 1960s, many investigations have focused on the agonist-antagonist relationships, left-right imbalances and so on, in order to present normative data for the assessment of musculoskeletal injuries. Furthermore, the isokinetic principle has been applied in rehabilitation to minimise rehabilitation

BACKGROUND Validating any screening test to predict and prevent football injuries is in need of identifying related risk factors through prospective designs. In spite of the extensive use of strength testing in football players, there are limited studies

Isokinetic strength in weight-trainers
European Journal of Applied Physiology and Occupational Physiology, 1984Isokinetic strength of ankle plantarflexion (APF), knee extension (KE) and elbow extension (EE) was measured in male weight-trainers (6 power-lifters and 7 bodybuilders) and 25 untrained men of similar age and height. The weight-trainers exceeded control subjects by 21%, 25% and 73% in APF, KE and EE strength respectively.

Applied Scientific Research, 1956
An automatic device was constructed for sampling air isokinetically. The automatic feature consists of a motor-operated bypass valve controlled by a Wheatstone bridge. Transducers, sensitive to changes in air velocity, are the sensing elements in the bridge.

Isokinetic Evaluation of Trunk Muscles
Spine, 1984The purpose of this study is to identify those individuals at risk who have weak trunk muscles and are prone to back pain. The overall thrust of this research is to develop a quantitative method to assess dynamic strength of the trunk muscles. Two unique isokinetic strength testing units in sitting and standing postures have been designed. Three groups

Objective: To investigate whether isokinetic muscle strengthening improves muscle strength, mobility, and gait in post-stroke patients. Methods: We searched for randomized controlled trials at PubMed/Medline, SciELO, PEDro, and Cochrane Central Register ...

Isokinetic rehabilitation after arthroscopic meniscectomy
European Journal of Applied Physiology and Occupational Physiology, 1992The aim of this study was to assess the effects in humans of early (2 weeks) and delayed (6 weeks) isokinetic strength training in the recovery of muscle strength following an arthroscopic partial meniscectomy. The peak torque developed in the quadriceps and hamstrings and the torque developed at a knee angle of 1.05 rad were evaluated in 16 subjects ...
