Biomechanical analysis of knee flexion and extension in the patients with hemiplegia
Abstract：Objective This study is on muscle strength training in heimplegic rehabilitation to find the best theaputic approaches.Methods 14 selective hemiplegic cases who had gotten gait training and traditional rehabilitation accepted standard isokinetic evaluation at 60, 120, rad/s speed. Results The peak torque（ PT， N· m） and total work (TW,J) of affected knee extension is 59.43N· m,41.86N· m,32.14N· m and 61.14J, 46.93J, 36.57J in three kinds of speed. There are significant differences in affected and unaffected side (P<0.01). PT and TW of affected knee flexion is 24.86N· m, 21.00N· m, 31.00Nm and 26.07J, 18.86J, 13.43J. Compared with unaffected side, we find significant differences (P< 0.01) also except PT in 120 rad/s.Conclusion:Is deficient muscle strength in heimplegic rehabilitation is worth farther study.
