Test-Retest Reliability Of The Soleus H-Reflex Is Affected By Joint Positions And Force Levels, Yungsheng Chen, Shi Zhou, Colleen Cartwright, Zachary Crowley, Robert Baglin, Fang Wang
Professor Colleen M Cartwright
The H-reflex has been extensively used to exam the spinal motoneuron excitability. However, no report has demonstrated the test-retest reliability of the H-reflex assessment during voluntary muscle contractions and its relation to joint positions. The purpose of this study was to determine the test-retest reliability of the soleus (SOL) H-reflex during rest and 10, 30, 50% maximal voluntary contractions (MVC) at the ankle joint angles of neutral (0deg), plantarflexion (20deg), and dorsiflexion (-20deg), respectively in a sitting position. Ten healthy participants (age 24.9 ± 5 years, height 168.3±8.8 cm, weight 62.7±12.3 kg) were tested for the SOL H-reflex on two …

Study design: Controlled laboratory study using a single-group, within-subjects comparison. Objectives: To determine whether different types of neural mobilization exercises are associated with differing amounts of longitudinal sciatic nerve excursion measured in vivo at the posterior midthigh region. Background: Recent research focusing on the upper limb of healthy subjects has shown that nerve excursion differs significantly between different types of neural mobilization exercises. This has not been examined in the lower limb. It is important to initially examine the influence of neural mobilization on peripheral nerve excursion in healthy people to identify peripheral nerve excursion impairments under conditions in which …
Comparison Of A Novel Direct Measure Of Rapid Pain Intensity Change To Traditional Serial 100 Mm Vas Measurement Of Pain Intensity, Mark Laslett, Peter Mcnair, Angela Cadogan, Wayne Hing
Comparison Of A Novel Direct Measure Of Rapid Pain Intensity Change To Traditional Serial 100 Mm Vas Measurement Of Pain Intensity, Mark Laslett, Peter Mcnair, Angela Cadogan, Wayne Hing

Objectives: Key diagnostic decisions often turn on measurement of change in pain intensity after diagnostic anesthetic blocks. This study aimed to introduce a new direct measure pain intensity change and compare it with percent change as calculated from the traditional preprocedure and postprocedure pain visual analog scales. Methods: Shoulder pain patients enrolled in a diagnostic accuracy study comparing clinical variables with image-guided local anesthetic injections were assessed with both the traditional preprocedure and postprocedure visual analog scales and the new direct method. Percent change in pain intensity was calculated with both instruments and were compared using statistical methods. The percentage …
