Comparative Kinematic and Electromyographic Assessment of Clinician- and Device-Assisted Sit-to-Stand Transfers in Patients With Stroke

Abstract: Lack of forward trunk flexion and restrained ankle movement during device-assisted transfers may dissuade clinicians from selecting this device for use as a dedicated rehabilitation tool. However, with clinician encouragement, muscle activation increased, which suggests that it is possible to safely practice transfers while challenging key leg muscles essential for standing. Future sit-to-stand devices should promote safety for the patient and clinician and encourage a movement pattern that more closely mimics… Show more

“…By putting the non-paretic hand on a regular cane, hemiparetic subjects demonstrated shorter movement time, greater knee extensor moment of paretic limb, and more symmetry of WB than those performing without a cane. Additionally, Burnfield et al [66] published the first study aiming to compare STS transfer assisted by a clinician and by a device using back belt and lift arms hooks. The authors concluded that the device-assisted transfer took nearly twice as long as clinician-assisted transfer.…”

“…These results indicate that in patients with stroke, weakness in one leg did not allow for adequate contraction to complete the sit-to-stand activity. Burnfield et al10 ) reported that patients with stroke required more time during sit-to-stand, and by examining the sit-to-stand activity, Carr et al11 ) found that these individuals have less paretic leg muscle power. In the present study, patients with stroke took long to complete the sit-to-stand activity because of weakened paretic leg muscles.…”
