Solange Milessi, Javier Oesquer, Marcos Crespo, Emiliano Ravera Abstract El análisis de sinergias musculares permite estudiar el control motor subyacente a la marcha. Habitualmente las sinergias musculares se obtienen mediante el modelado y procesamiento estadístico de la actividad eléctrica muscular de superficie durante la marcha. Este trabajo analiza cómo la selección de diferentes grupos musculares […]

Camila Duré, Eugenia Soledad Muñoz Larrosa, Lucas Dorsch, Gastón Schlotthauer, Paola Catalfamo Formento Abstract Although gait symmetry analysis in healthy individuals has been widely explored in recent years, particularly through the evaluation of ground reaction forces (GRF), the findings remain inconsistent. Moreover, most studies have focused exclusively on specific events, such as weight acceptance and

Eugenia Soledad Muñoz Larrosa, Lucas Dorsch, Camila Duré, Claudia Bonell, Gastón Schlotthauer, Paola Catalfamo Formento Abstract The foot plays a crucial role in walking as it constantly adjusts its contact with the ground to propel the body forward. In able-bodied individuals, the common initial foot contact patterns involve the transition from initial contact at the

Melisa Frisoli, Antonella Ermilio, Pilar Veiravé, Paola Catalfamo Formento. Abstract Health professionals involved in the estimation of mobility ranges for the analysis of work disability use the goniometer due to its accessibility, ease of use and low cost. Although various methods for measuring joint range of motion have been proposed in the literature, comparative evaluations

Lucas Dorsch, Camila Duré, Eugenia Soledad Muñoz Larrosa, Jesica Itatí Zuchuat, Melisa Frisoli, Darío Cardozo, Paola Catalfamo Formento. Abstract Numerous commercial dynamometers are available on both local and international markets for the measurement of muscle strength. These measurements can guide rehabilitation and support decision making regarding return to sports activities following injuries, such as anterior

Martín Suárez, María Casablanca, Melisa Frisoli, Pablo Luciano Querubín Pereyra, Juan Grigolatto, Daniel Zapata, Paola Catalfamo Formento Abstract Introduction. Smartphones have become essential tools in daily life. Research has shown that some spatio-temporal parameters of gait are affected when using smartphones. However, most of the research has been conducted indoors, in controlled environments. Objective. To study

Emiliano Pablo Ravera, Adam Rosumalsky Journal of Biomechanics Abstract Increased energy demands during walking is a recurrent issue for children with cerebral palsy (CP). Given the high incidence of spasticity in these children, several authors have analyzed the impact of selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR) on energy consumption during walking, typically showing minimal changes post-SDR. To

Mauricio Riveras, Matthew Oldfield, Paola Catalfamo-Formento Abstract Subjects with unilateral transtibial amputation exhibit altered minimum toe clearance (MTC) depending on the ankle prosthesis used. It has been suggested that a limited prosthetic ankle angle could be the cause of the change. The aim of this study was to investigate the alterations in kinematics in the joints
