Influence of pressure supports on joint range of motion

Burns, 1992
Burn patients often complain of restricted mobility following application of elasticized nylon anti-burn-scar supports. This study was designed to analyse the influence of this type of pressure garment on joint range of motion (ROM). Data were compiled from 80 burn-affected joints of 17 burn patients placed in a support for the first time.

Normal range of motion of joints in male subjects.

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1979
With a clinical goniometer, we measured the arcs of active motion of the shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist, hip, knee, ankle, and foot in 109 normal male subjects ranging in age from eighteen months to fifty-four years old. The normal limits were determined for subjects who were one to nineteen years old and for those who were twenty to fifty-four years ...

Effects of Low-Impact Dance on Blood Biochemistry, Bone Mineral Density, the Joint Range of Motion of Lower Extremities, Knee Extension Torque, and Fall in Females.

Journal of Aging and Physical Activity, 2016
The effect of low-impact dance on blood metabolites, the joint range of motion (ROM) of the lower extremities, knee extension torque, bone mass density (BMD), the number of falls, and the confidence to perform daily activities (Modified Falls Efficacy ...

ACOMPARISON OF TWO WARM-UPS ON JOINT RANGE OF MOTION

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2007
The purpose of this study was to compare a 5-minute treadmill activity at 70% maximum heart rate (MHR) and 5 to 6 minutes of ballistic stretching to a 5-minute treadmill activity at 60% of MHR and 5 to 6 minutes of static stretching. Thirty healthy college students, 7 men and 23 women, volunteered. Most volunteers were moderately active.

Range of Joint Motion in College Males

Proceedings of the Human Factors Society Annual Meeting, 1983
Research was performed to determine the voluntary range of joint motion in college males. Two hand-held electrogoniometers were used to take the measurements. A total of thirty-two measurements were taken on eight different joints. Subjects were male college students. The purpose of this research was three-fold.

Glenohumeral joint rotation range of motion in competitive swimmers

Journal of Sports Sciences, 2011
Much research has examined shoulder range of motion adaptations in overhead-unilateral athletes. Based on the void examining overhead-bilateral athletes, especially competitive swimmers, we examined shoulder external rotation, isolated internal rotation, composite internal rotation, and total arc of motion range of motion of competitive swimmers.

Joint Range of Motion and Mobility of the Human Torso

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1971
THE OBJECT HAS BEEN TO DEVELOP A QUANTITATIVE DESCRIPTION OF THE MOBILITY OF THE HUMAN TORSO, INCLUDING THE SHOULDER GIRDLE, NECK, THORACIC AND LUMBAR VERTEBRAL COLUMN, AND PELVIS. THIS HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED BY A SYSTEMATIC MULTIDISCIPLINARY INVESTIGATION INVOLVING TECHNIQUES OF CADAVER DISSECTION AND MEASUREMENT, UTILIZING CINERADIOFLUOROSCOPY FOR ...

Normal joint range of motion in children with Down syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, 2023
AbstractDown syndrome (DS) is one of the most common chromosomal conditions that results in intellectual disability. Children with DS have many different inflammatory and noninflammatory conditions that can affect joint mobility leading to arthralgia and altered joint range of motion (ROM), and it is important to have normal reference values for ...

Accurate simulation of hip joint range of motion

Proceedings of Computer Animation 2002 (CA 2002), 2003
This paper presents a hip joint motion simulation method using accurate hip joint center (HJC) and hip range of motion. We calculate the extreme hip joint range of motion centered on the HJC that is located by an automatic calculation algorithm on 3D reconstructed surface models.

A Technique for Measuring Clothed Range of Joint Motion

Journal of Applied Biomechanics, 1997
The study of range of joint motion is of theoretical and practical interest to basic research, workspace design, rehabilitation, and mathematical models. Nude range of motion has been extensively explored, whereas range of motion under clothed conditions, although equally important in applications, has received less attention. A project was designed to
