Wheelchair Training Program For New Manual Wheelchair Users, Kerri Ann Morgan 2015 Washington University in St. Louis

Wheelchair Training Program For New Manual Wheelchair Users, Kerri Ann Morgan

Arts & Sciences Graduate Student Theses and Dissertations

Manual wheelchairs are commonly used for everyday mobility among people with lower limb impairments, including persons with spinal cord injury (SCI). Manual wheelchair users often experience pain and chronic overuse injuries in their upper extremities, limiting their mobility and their ability to complete daily activities. The repetitive trauma of propelling a wheelchair may be a contributing factor to upper extremity pain and injury. The anatomy of the upper extremities is not designed for the number of repetitions and the amount of force involved in everyday wheelchair propulsion. Research has been conducted to identify recommendations for decreasing the number of repetitions …


Assessment Of Real-World Upper Limb Activity In Adults With Chronic Stroke, Ryan Bailey 2015 Washington University in St. Louis

Assessment Of Real-World Upper Limb Activity In Adults With Chronic Stroke, Ryan Bailey

Arts & Sciences Graduate Student Theses and Dissertations

Hemiparesis is a common motor impairment following stroke that leads to disability. The goal of stroke-related physical rehabilitation is to reduce the severity of motor-related disability in hopes that improved motor capacity (i.e. what one can do) will generalize to improved motor performance (i.e. what one actually does) in everyday activities. Recent studies have demonstrated that motor capacity and motor performance are distinct domains of motor function, but few have objectively measured motor performance. Furthermore, even though many studies have demonstrated that motor capacity is only moderately associated with motor performance, few studies have examined other factors that might influence …


Human Movement Variability And Aging, Nicholas Stergiou, Jenny A. Kent, Denise McGrath 2015 University of Nebraska at Omaha

Human Movement Variability And Aging, Nicholas Stergiou, Jenny A. Kent, Denise Mcgrath

Journal Articles

An optimal level of variability enables us to interact adaptively and safely to a continuously changing environment, where often our movements must be adjusted in a matter of milliseconds. A large body of research exists that demonstrates natural variability in healthy gait (along with variability in other, healthy biological signals such as heart rate) and a loss of this variability in aging and injury, as well as in a variety of neurodegenerative and physiological disorders. We submit that this field of research is now in pressing need of an innovative “next step” that goes beyond the many descriptive studies that …
