Journal ArticleDOI
Muscle fatigue and fatigue-related biomechanical changes during a cyclic lifting task.
Paolo Bonato,Gerold Ebenbichler,Serge H. Roy,S. Lehr,Martin Posch,Josef Kollmitzer,U. Della Croce +6 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate correlation between localized muscle fatigue and biomechanical adaptations that occur during a cyclic lifting task that might be useful in improving education, lifting ergonomy, and back school programs.
Journal ArticleDOI
From A to Z: Wearable technology explained
Alan Godfrey,Victoria Hetherington,Hubert P. H. Shum,Paolo Bonato,Nigel H. Lovell,Samuel Stuart +5 more
TL;DR: An overview of the common challenges facing WT and an A-Z guide is presented, focusing on key terms, aiming to provide a grounded and broad understanding of current WT developments in healthcare.
Journal ArticleDOI
EMG assessment of back muscle function during cyclical lifting
TL;DR: The purpose was to identify whether changes in the instantaneous median frequency among concurrently active paraspinal muscles during repetitive trunk extension produces a 'fatigue pattern' that is indicative of normal functioning, and whether this pattern is different when the subject produces a sustained isometric trunk extension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in the surface EMG signal and the biomechanics of motion during a repetitive lifting task
TL;DR: Time-frequency analysis procedures to compute the instantaneous median frequency (IMDF) suggest an association between muscle fatigue at the lumbar region and the way the subject manipulates the box during the exercise.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Tai Chi Exercise on Multiple Fracture-Related Risk Factors in Post-Menopausal Osteopenic Women: A Pilot Pragmatic, Randomized Trial
Peter M. Wayne,Douglas P. Kiel,Douglas P. Kiel,Julie E. Buring,Ellen M Connors,Paolo Bonato,Gloria Y. Yeh,Calvin Jay Cohen,Chiara Mancinelli,Roger B. Davis +9 more
TL;DR: The results affirm the value of a more definitive, longer-term trial of TC for osteopenic women, adequately powered to detect clinically relevant effects of TC on attenuation of BMD loss and reduction of fall risk in this population.
