  1. 1. Rett syndrome, motor development, mobility and orthostatic reactions : loss of function, difficulties and possibilities

    Författare :Gunilla Larsson; Britta Lindström; Ingegerd Witt Engerström; Åsa Bartonek; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rett syndrome; child development; developmental disabilities; gait; impairment; mobility; motivation; motor skills disorders; orthostatic intolerance; physiotherapy; recovery of function.;

    Sammanfattning : Rett syndrome (RTT) is a rare, severe neurodevelopmental disorder, which partly develops in a predictable way, and influences many bodily functions. Regression, i.e. loss of earlier achieved abilities, is one of the clinical criteria for RTT. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Spatio-temporal processing of surface electromyographic signals : information on neuromuscular function and control

    Författare :Christer Grönlund; Leif Sörnmo; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; EMG; multichannel surface electromyography; motor unit action potentials; conduction velocity; muscle architecture; signal quality; spatial distributions; synchronization; muscle function; motor control; biomedicinsk strålningsvetenskap; Biomedical Radiation Science;

    Sammanfattning : During muscle contraction, electrical signals are generated by the muscle cells. The analysis of those signals is called electromyography (EMG). The EMG signal is mainly determined by physiological factors including so called central factors (central nervous system origin) and peripheral factors (muscle tissue origin). LÄS MER

  3. 3. Sensorimotor function in chronic neck pain : objective assessments and a novel method for neck coordination exercise

    Författare :Ulrik Röijezon; Mats Djupsjöbacka; Martin Björklund; Charlotte Häger-Ross; Dario Liebermann; Mikael Karlberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neck pain; Whiplash; Sensorimotor; Motor Control; Motor Learning; Neck Coordination Exercise; Postural Control; Cervical kinematics; Reliability.; Community medicine; Samhällsmedicin; rehabiliteringsmedicin; Rehabilitation Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic neck pain is a widespread problem that causes individual suffering as well as large costs for the society. The knowledge about the pathophysiology is poor and therefore specific diagnosis and causal treatment are rare. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Forced use on arm function after stroke : clinically rated and self-reported outcome and measurement during the sub-acute phase

    Författare :Ann M. Hammer; Birgitta Lindmark; Lotta Widén Holmqvist; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :stroke; upper limb; reliability; validity; ICF; forced use; motor function; effectiveness; rehabilitation; physiotherapy; grip force; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicin; Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of forced use on arm and hand recovery after stroke by applying a restraining sling on the non-affected arm and to investigate psychometric properties of selected upper limb measures.Papers I and II reported a randomised trial with 1- and 3-month follow-ups.

  5. 5. General Motor Function Assessment and Perceptions of Life Satisfaction during and after Geriatric Rehabilitation

    Författare :Anna Cristina Åberg; Hans Lithell; Birgitta Lindmark; Birgitta Sidenvall; Christina Helging Stenström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Geriatric nursing; geriatric rehabilitation; motor function; assessment; qualitative interviews; life satisfaction; self-expresion; informal care; Äldrevård; Older people and ageing; Äldre och åldrande;

    Sammanfattning : Two main goals of geriatric rehabilitation are to re-establish ability for physical function in order to facilitate independence in activities of daily living (ADL), and to promote an optimal degree of well-being, i.e. life satisfaction, in the individual. LÄS MER
