EFFECT OF ISOKINETIC STRENGTH‐TRAINING ON FUNCTIONAL ABILITY AND WALKING EFFICIENCY IN ADOLESCENTS WITH CEREBRAL PALSY

MacPhail, H. E. Ann, Kramer, John F.·1995·Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology

Abstract

SUMMARY: This study investigated changes in knee extensor and flexor strength of 17 mildly involved adolescents with cerebral palsy in response to an eight‐week isokinetic strength‐training program. Peak torque and work were used as strength outcome measures. Subsequent changes in gross motor function and walking efficiency were evaluated. The significant strength gains of 21 to 25 per cent observed were similar in magnitude to those previously reported for able‐bodied individuals. A significant number of subjects showed an increase in gross motor ability. However, walking velocity and walking efficiency were unchanged. Strength gains of 15 to 17 percent were maintained for three months after the cessation of isokinetic training. RÉSUMÉ: Essai d'entraînement dc force isokinétique sur lu capacité fonctionnelle et Veffwicnce dc mtirche chez les adolescents IMC Cette étude a apprécié la modification de force des fléchisseurs et exenseurs de genou chez. 17 adoelscents IMC Légèrement atteints, en réponse à un programme d'entraînement de force isokinétique duran híut semaines. La pointe du moment de couple et le travail effectué furent utilisés comme mesure de la force effectuée. Les modifications ultérieures de la fonction motrice globale et L'efficacité de la Marche furent évaluées. Des gains significatifs de force de 21 à 25 pour cent observés étaient comparables en amplitude à ceux que avaient été antérieurment rapportés chez des individus valides. Un nombre signiftctif de sujeis présentérent un gain dans L'aptitude motrice globale. Cependant, la vitesse et L'efficience de la marche demeuérent inchangées. Des gains de force de 15à 17 pour cent furent maintenus trois mois l'arrêt du programme isokinétique. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG: Einfluß des isokinetischen Kraftlrainings auf Funktionsfähigkeit und Gangqualität bei Jugend Uclien mil Cerebralparese Bei 17 Jugendliehen mil Cerebralparese wurden maeh einem acht‐wöchigen isokinetischen Training die Veränderungen in der Muskelkraft e Kniestrecker und ‐beuger gemessen. Drehkaft und Aerbeit waren die Outcome‐Parameter für den Kraftzuwachs, Die daraus resultierenden Veränderungen der grobmotorischen Funktion und der Gehfähigkeit wurden bewertet. Der signifikante Kraftzuwachs von 21 bis 25 Prozent entsprach etwa den zuvor berichteten Ergcbnissen bei gesunden Personen. Eine signifikante Anzahl von Proban den zeigte cine Verbeserung der grobmotorischen Fähigkeiten. Ein Kraftzuwachs von 15 bis 17 Prozent war über drei Monate nach Beendigung des isokinetischen Trainings machweisbar. RESUMEN: Efectn del entrenamiento con csfuerzo isoquinético sobre la capacidad funcional y eficiencia en la marcha en adolescentres con parálisis derebra Este estudio investiga los cambios en la fuerza de flexión y extensión de la rodilla en 17 adolescentes moderadamente afectados de parálisis cerebral, como respuesta a un programa de ocho semanas de ejercicios de esfuerzo isoquinético. Como tnedidas del resultado del esfuerzo se tomaron el trabajo y el punto maximo de toques. Sc cvaluaron los sucesivos cambios en la funcion moiora grosera y el la eficiencia de la marcha. la ganancia significaiiva del 21 al 25 por ciento observada era similar en magnitud a la aportada previamente por individuos sin discapacidad. Un njmero significativo de individuos mostraron un aumento en la capacidad motra grosera. Sin embargo, la velocidad de la marcha y su eficiencia no cambiaron. Ganancias de 15 a 17 por ciento se mantemían tres meses después del cese de la actividud isoquinética.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
