Brown LE, Whitehurst M, Gilbert R, Buchalter DN (1995) The effect of velocity and gender on load range during knee extension and flexion exercise on an
isokinetic device.
Power output, mechanomyographic, and electromyographic responses to maximal, concentric,
isokinetic muscle actions in men and women.
Results: After a 6-week training program, significant differences in terms of physical functioning and
isokinetic parameters in the two groups were found (pLess than0.
Isokinetic strength testing yielded no differences among the groups (p > .
The research described in this paper lead to the idea that MAS-20-750N-AA-MC-O-ER-BG pneumatic muscle is suitable as actuator for the
isokinetic equipment considered, the next step being the analysis of this equipment performances in rehabilitation.
There were no significant differences observed in isometric or
isokinetic strength between the massage and control arms either immediately post-exercise or over the study period.
Although the abundance of
isokinetic research in medical literature involving joint rehabilitation, combined with consistently higher MSD reductions, as referenced by vendor and employer studies, appears to favor
isokinetics for validity, objectivity and reliability.
There was no difference in cycle ergometer or
isokinetic dynamometer performance.
A newly redesigned Reuter sampler allows separate entry and exit airflow; which may improve performance hut also provides an actual flow rate and can more closely approximate
isokinetic conditions.
One of them is Advatech, based at Sandycroft, Flintshire, which recently obtained a loan of pounds 100,000 to help it design and develop an
isokinetic machine which will be used by hospitals, sports injury clinics and others to test the integrity of physiotherapy programmes.
Depending on the source, the word "contraction" has been used to describe several types of muscle actions including concentric, eccentric, isometric, isotonic,
isokinetic and isoinertial.
Accumulate and scale functions support a set of manual and automatic calibration options and
isokinetic testing.
