Distribution Of Essential Tremor In The Degrees Of Freedom Of The Upper Limb, Charles Charles Pigg
Distribution Of Essential Tremor In The Degrees Of Freedom Of The Upper Limb, Charles Charles Pigg
Theses and Dissertations
This study seeks to understand upper limb tremor in subjects with essential tremor (ET). A thorough understanding of tremor distribution will allow for the more effective development of tremor suppression devices, which offer an alternative to current treatments. Previous studies primarily focused on tremor in the hand only. This study seeks to characterize the distribution of tremor throughout the upper limb. We measured tremor in 25 subjects diagnosed with ET using motion capture, which provided 0displacement information of the limb during multiple postural and kinetic tasks. Inverse kinematics allowed us to analyze the motion capture data in the 7 major …
