1. 1. Assessment of Lower Limb Muscle Strength: Feasibility and Implementation on Exxentric’s SingleExx Machines

   University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

   Author : Maximilian Geisler; [2023]
   Keywords : Force measurement; Lower limb strength; Symmetry assessment; Flywheel-based leg extension machine; Prototype development; Isokinetic dynamometer; Kraftmätning; Styrka i nedre extremiteterna; Symmetribedömning; Flywheel- baserad benförlängningsmaskin; Prototyputveckling; Isokinetisk dynamometer;

   Abstract : Measuring lower limb strength and symmetry is a common practice in elite sports to determine the return to sports point in time during rehabilitation, and this information could be useful for amateur athletes too. However, the devices used for this are highly sophisticated and hardly accessible. READ MORE

3. 2. Preferred leg and strength asymmetries : A cross sectional study comparing perceived and measured laterality

   University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för rörelse, kultur och samhälle

   Author : Kung Anna Emelie Persson; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between the degree of self-perceived leg preference and the degree of strength asymmetries in well-trained adults. Method: All tests took place during two separate days at the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences. Preferred and non-preferred leg was examined via questionnaires. READ MORE

4. 3. Identification of Potential Sources of Measurement Errors in an Isokinetic Dynamometer : Reliability Analysis of Shoulder Abduction and Flexion Data

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

   Author : Malena Grannerud; [2022]
   Keywords : Isokinetic dynamometer; shoulder abduction; shoulder flexion; rotator cuff; torque; load; force; repeatability; reproducibility; reliability; agreement; ICC; intraclass correlation coefficient; Bland Altman; Isokinetisk dynamometer; axelabduktion; axelflexion; rotatorcuff; vridmoment; last; kraft; repeterbarhet; reproducerbarhet; tillförlitlighet; överensstämmelse; ICC; intraklass korrelationskoefficient; Bland Altman;

   Abstract : The evaluation of shoulder abduction and flexion strength is important in the rehabilitation after rotator cuff tear. The purpose of this work is to assess the intra and inter-rater reliability of measurement data from an isokinetic dynamometer used to evaluate shoulder abduction and flexion strength, with the aim to identify sources of measurement errors and suggest improvements.

5. 4. Post-Activation Performance Enhancement in Sledge Ankle Hops after a 6-seconds maximal Isometric Plantar Flexion

   University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för fysisk aktivitet och hälsa

   Author : Gabriel Solé; [2021]
   Keywords : sports; sprint; jumping; performance;

   Abstract : Aim The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a 6-second maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) of the plantar-flexors on subsequent ankle hops performed only by plantar flexing at the ankle. Methods 10 physically active university students were recruited to volunteer in this study. READ MORE

6. 5. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery : Effects on rate of torque development and electromechanical delay

   University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för idrotts- och hälsovetenskap

   Author : Alexander Musi Wennergren; [2015]
   Keywords : neuromuscular electrical stimulation; electro mechanical delay; rate of torque development; anterior cruciate ligament; electromyography;

   Abstract : Abstract Aim: The main objective of this study was to compare electro mechanical delay (EMD) and rate of torque development (RTD) of the knee extensors 6 weeks after rehabilitation of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with or without neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES). Further the feasibility of the study was examined. READ MORE
