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.

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 ...

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 ...

Joint position sense is impaired by Parkinson's disease

Annals of Neurology, 2000
The abilities of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, taking routine medication, and of control subjects, to discriminate bilateral differences in the static angular positions of the two elbow joints were studied during passive (subject relaxed) and active (subject contracting to hold position) conditions.

Influence of hysteresis on joint position sense in the human knee joint

Experimental Brain Research, 2000
During muscle lengthening in a movement cycle the firing rate of muscle spindles is higher than during shortening. This phenomenon, known as hysteresis, has implications for movement control. Therefore, it should have an impact on joint position sense (JPS), the subject's awareness of the static position of a joint.

No Relationship Between Joint Position Sense and Force Sense at the Shoulder

Journal of Motor Behavior, 2017
In practice, a single test is used to quantify an individual's proprioception. Previous studies have not found a correlation between joint position sense (JPS) and force sense (FS), which are submodalities of proprioception. The purpose of the present study is to determine if root mean square (RMS) error in JPS and FS are related at the shoulder ...

Effect of Force Sense to Active Joint Position Sense and Relationships between Active Joint Position Sense, Force Sense, Jumping and Muscle Strength

Journal of Motor Behavior, 2019
We aimed to investigate the effect of external load on the joint position sense (JPS) accuracy and its relation to the target jump height. The present study also aimed to explore the relationship between force sense (FS) and maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC).
