  1. 1. Quantifying human balance : Analysis of force plate data

    Författare :Annica Önell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Systems engineering; Systemteknik; Systemanalys; Systems Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : There is a lack of reliable methods for assessment of balance suited for routine use in clinical settings. The thesis focuses on analysis of force plate data for evaluation of balance during normal, unperturbed standing and sitting. Some commonly used force plate based methods during unperturbed standing are presented. LÄS MER

  3. 2. High-grade spondylolisthesis in young patients : Long-term results of in situ fusion

    Författare :Anders Joelson; Per Wretenberg; Karin Frennered; Hans Tropp; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adjacent segment disk degeneration; Fusion in situ; Health-related quality of life; Sagittal balance; Self-image; Spondylolisthesis;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this long-term follow-up of 38 of 40 consecutive patients was to evaluate the results of uninstrumented in situ fusion for high-grade isthmic spondylolisthesis three decades after surgery. The mean age at surgery was 14 (range 9-24) years. LÄS MER

  4. 3. On the Diagnosis and Treatment of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

    Författare :Konstantinos Pazarlis; Peter Försth; Bengt Sandén; Nikos Schizas; Karl Michaëlsson; Christian Hellum; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; lumbar spinal stenosis; spine surgery; decompression; fusion; sagittal balance; electrodiagnosis; neurophysiology; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi; Neurology; Neurologi; Radiology; Radiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is the most common indication for spinal surgery. The aging global population is increasing the demand for strategies that promote physical activity among the elderly. As the prevalence of LSS rises, the condition gains constantly demographic and socioeconomic attention. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Motion Analysis and Postural Stability of Transtibial Prosthesis Users

    Författare :David Rusaw; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Artificial limb; balance; electromyography EMG ; motion analysis; postural stability;

    Sammanfattning : The AIMS of the thesis were to critically evaluate motion analysis methods used during investigations of transtibial prosthesis users, and to propose improvements to these methods. Additionally, the aim was to evaluate if vibratory feedback could be used to improve postural stability in transtibial prosthesis users and how being a prosthesis user influenced muscular response to postural perturbations.

  7. 5. Sensorimotor control and cervical range of motion in women with chronic neck pain : Kinematic assessments and effects of neck coordination exercise

    Författare :Thomas Rudolfsson; Mats Djupsjöbacka; Martin Björklund; Charlotte Häger; Dario Liebermann; Anneli Peolsson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neck pain; Rehabilitation; Coordination training; Resistance training; Postural balance; randomized controlled trial; Musculoskeletal pain; Biomechanics; Range of motion; Kinematics; Head Movements;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Neck pain is a common problem in society and is more prevalent among women. The consequences of neck pain for the individual often include activity and participation limitations, thus affecting many dimensions of life. LÄS MER
