Effect of fatigue on joint position sense of the knee

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 1986
AbstractThis study was designed to test position sense of the knee joint before and after fatigue in order to determine whether muscle or capsular receptors are the primary sensors for joint position sense. Reproduction of passive positioning and detection of the onset of motion (kinesthesia) were employed to measure joint position sense.

Joint position sense in the normal and pathologic knee joint

Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology, 1991
Joint position sense has been suggested to be an important factor in the etiology of degenerative joint disease. It is also believed to be important in the rehabilitative process after reconstructive surgery of the knee. Despite this awareness, in many areas of orthopaedic surgery little effort has been devoted to study of this crucial topic. Therefore,

JOINT POSITION SENSE

Brain, 1980
The effects of isometric and isotonic force production on perceived static joint position were investigated in 12 adult subjects. The joint examined was the proximal interphalangeal joint of one index finger, and its perceived position was determined from matching movements of the equivalent joint on the other hand. When the perturbed joint was free to

Joint position sense – There׳s an app for that

Journal of Biomechanics, 2016
Traditionally, proprioception has been assessed with a passive model, in which an external apparatus moves a body segment. Recently, protocols have been developed based on active movements, which are more representative of functional activities. However, even these approaches require expensive testing equipment and the necessity of a visit to a ...

Regional Assessment of Joint Position Sense in the Spine

Spine, 1998
A test-retest design was used to assess the reproducibility of position sense measurements of the spine recorded at T1, T7, L1, and S2.To measure position sense at four spinal levels in healthy volunteers and to determine if this varies on a day-to-day basis.

Knee Joint Position Sense in Compressive Myelopathy

Spine, 2006
The knee joint position sense (JPS) and kinesthesia were measured in patients with compressive myelopathy.To find out how the knee JPS and kinesthesia are useful to evaluate lower limb function in patients with compressive myelopathy.No previous reports have been written on the quantitative analysis of knee joint proprioception in myelopathy patients ...

Joint position sense in total knee arthroplasty

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 1983
AbstractSeventeen postoperative total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients were evaluated using two tests of knee joint position sense. Young controls and age‐matched controls underwent identical tests. The TKA patients also underwent gait analysis, including foot switch stride analysis, and clinical evaluation using a standard scoring system.

Benefits of active motion for joint position sense

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2005
AbstractAnterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures lead to a proprioceptive deficit and therefore joint position sense. This study examined whether active motion is better suited than passive motion to address this deficit. Sixty patients with ACL rupture were prospectively randomised into two groups [continuous active motion (CAM)/continuous passive ...

Cryotherapy Impairs Knee Joint Position Sense

International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2009
The effects of cryotherapy on joint position sense are not clearly established; however it is paramount to understand its impact on peripheral feedback to ascertain the safety of using ice therapy before resuming exercise on sports or rehabilitation settings.

Joint Position Sense Testing in Young Children

Journal of Child Neurology, 2018
The standard physical examination evaluation for a proprioception abnormality depends upon the patient’s ability to follow directions and respond to the examiner, a skill not yet developed in toddlers. This study demonstrates a new proprioception examination method that may allow for better localization of lesions and determines whether healthy ...
