Analysis of Shoulder Muscle Activity During Isokinetic Evaluation of Rotators

• Status: Unknown
• Phase: N/A

• Healthy volunteers: Accepted

Summary

The objective of this study is to assess the impact of different positions of the glenohumeral joint on the maximum muscle contraction of different shoulder muscles. The muscles do not contract with the same intensity depending on the position of the arm in relation to the trunk. With the determination of this optimal position to activate the shoulder muscles as much as possible, we will be able to strengthen the patients during their revalidation.

Conditions

• Muscle Activation
• Electromyography
• Muscle Strength
• Shoulder

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Isokinetic test + EMG	Isokinetic test:The isokinetic device is used to evaluate the strength of a subject. The test will be performed in two positions. This will determine the best position to activate shoulder muscles EMG (electromyography):it's a device that measures the electrical activity of muscles. This will allow us to record the maximum activity of the shoulder muscles during force tests.
