About

There is very limited research examining isokinetic parameters and activity level in patients with amputation.. Therefore, the aims of this study were to illustrate isokinetic measurements including strength and proprioception and to analyze the correlation between those isokinetic parameters and activity level and to predict amputee mobility score. It is hypothesized that muscle strength and proprioception were associated with activity level and could be used to estimate amputee mobility scale score in patients with amputation.

Full description

Isokinetic measurements are used in the rehabilitation of amputee patients and to evaluate the effectiveness of rehabilitation. The parameters that are frequently looked at in these measurements are isokinetic muscle strength and proprioception. There is very limited research examining isokinetic parameters and activity level in patients with amputation.. Therefore, the aims of this study were to illustrate isokinetic measurements including strength and proprioception and to analyze the correlation between those isokinetic parameters and activity level and to predict amputee mobility score. We hypothesized that muscle strength and proprioception were associated with activity level and could be used to estimate amputee mobility scale score in patients with amputation
