Efficacy of lateral heel wedge orthotics for the treatment of patients with knee osteoarthritis

Creator:: Wallace, David A.
Abstract:: Lateral heel wedge orthotics are designed to reduce medial tibiofemoral joint loading and pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). To date, the efficacy of long-term lateral heel wedge orthotics use among OA patients has not been determined. This study evaluated the extent to which lateral heel wedge orthotics reduced...

Influence of ankle orthoses on ankle joint motion and postural stability before and after exercise

Creator:: Jorden, Ryan A.
Abstract:: Ankle injuries comprise more than 15% of all sports injuries worldwide. The efficacy of the ankle taping for injury prevention has long been under scrutiny as numerous studies have shown that tape rapidly loses its ability to constrain ankle motion with exercise. Consequently, ankle braces (orthoses) are being used with...

Evaluation of outcomes following thermal, open and arthroscopic glenohumeral capsulorrhaphy for recurrent anterior instability

Creator:: Sullivan, Jeff A.
Abstract:: PURPOSE: To compare glenohumeral joint position sense (JPS), concentric internal (IR) and external rotation (ER) strength, functional ability, and level of satisfaction in patients who underwent three types of glenohumeral capsulorrhaphy with age-matched controls. RESEARCH DESIGN: Four 4x2 and two 4x3 ANOVAs were used to identify differences in JPS and...

Assessment of the acute sensorimotor and neurocognitive effects of repeated heading of a soccer ball

Creator:: Arthur-Banning, Skye
Abstract:: Several recent studies have revealed that high caliber European professional soccer players often have diminished levels of neurological functioning, yet no study has been able to identify the specific aspect of soccer participation responsible for these decreases. In an effort to identify a source of mild traumatic brain injury present...

Evaluation of the lateral scapular slide test using radiographic imaging : a validity and reliability study

Creator:: Daniels, Todd P.
Abstract:: Function of the shoulder complex is highly dependent on the relationship between the scapula and the humerus. Etiologies for the disruption of the glenohumeral relationship include impaired or abnormal scapular function, motion, or position. The lateral scapular slide test (LSST) has been developed as a clinical tool to assess this...

The effectiveness of a surgical tubing strengthening program in the maintenance of performance among high school pitchers

Creator:: Baheti, Neeraj D.
Abstract:: Throughout the various levels of baseball competition, pitchers often suffer season-ending or career-ending injuries. Significant improvements have been made in the treatment and rehabilitation of these injuries, with a lesser amount of attention given to injury prevention. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of an inseason...

Assessment of pre-fire season physical fitness training among Bureau of Land Management wildland firefighters

Creator:: Hawkins, Jeremy R.
Abstract:: Wildland firefighters encounter many situations during forest fires that require them to rely on their knowledge, experience, and fitness level for survival While energy expenditure of wildland firefighters on the fire line has been well established, relatively little is known about the physical fitness level of wildland firefighters when they...

The influence of collegiate football on congnitive functioning as determined by the Standard Assessment of Concussion (SAC[superscript TM]) test

Creator:: Franz, Chelsey E.
Abstract:: Objective: To investigate neurocognitive effects of collegiate football players as assessed by the Standardized Assessment of Concussion (SAC™) testing battery and a self-reported concussion symptoms checklist. Design and Setting: We used a one-way MANOVA to evaluate differences in SAC™ test scores between intercollegiate football players with no history of concussion...

Radiographic validation and reliability of selected measures of pronation and biomechanical analysis of tarsal navicular displacement under static and dynamic loading conditions

Creator:: Hannigan-Downs, Kim
Abstract:: The navicular drop test (NDT), Feiss' line (FL) and standing foot angle (SFA) are clinical tests used to estimate the amount of pronation via inferior displacement of the tarsal navicular. Thirty-two patients (female and male, ages 18-65) who sought medical treatment for lower extremity pathologies participated in the study that...

The effects of 3-months of foot orthotic wear on measures of postural stability in persons with chronic injury and normal lower limb function

Creator:: Hornyik, Maria L.
Abstract:: Under researched somatosensory contributions to postural stability, in addition to high incident rates of foot injury in the physically active population, lead to two investigative studies. An initial research study compared variables of two postural stability assessment devices to determine reliability of outcome measures and commonality of outcome measures to...
