Quadriceps Muscle Fatigue and Knee Joint Position Sense in Healthy Men
Purpose: Proprioception is a part of the somatosensory system responsible for sending information to the central nervous system to monitor the status of various body parts relative to each another. One of the main causes of impaired proprioception is fatigue. In the following study, the effects of fatigue on quadriceps muscle and hence on knee proprioception in healthy subjects was studied.&nbs...
متن کاملJoint position sense and vibration sense: anatomical organisation and assessment.
Clinical examination of joint position sense and vibration sense can provide important information concerning specific cutaneous sensory receptors, peripheral nerves, dorsal roots, and central nervous system pathways and should be included as a regular component of the neurological examination. Although these sensory modalities share a spinal cord and brainstem pathway, they arise in different ...
متن کاملThe effects of muscle fatigue on shoulder joint position sense.
Proprioception, or joint position sense, probably plays an important role in shoulder joint function. In this study, we assessed the effect of muscle fatigue on shoulder proprioception in 20 volunteers with no shoulder abnormalities. Shoulder proprioception was measured as the threshold to first detection of humeral rotation with the joint at 90 degrees of abduction and 90 degrees of external r...
متن کاملEvaluating the effact of eight weeks strength and plyometric trainings on knee joint position sense
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of eight weeks strength and plyometric trainings on knee joint position sense. In this study, 45 male students (21.7±2.17years, weight 69.7±7.89 kg, and height 177.2±5.83cm) volunteered and selected as subjects to participate in this semi-empirical study. Subjects divided in three groups include strength (n=15), plyometric (n=15) and cont...
متن کاملJoint position sense in the normal and pathologic knee joint.
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, we conducted several studies of knee join...
