Abstract:Purpose: This work generates a comprehensive description of upper extremity and torso kinematics of a healthy population during reaching and dexterity Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) tasks. Methods: Upper limb and torso kinematic data were collected from 30 young, healthy participants as they performed three common FCE tasks: repetitive reaching, fingertip dexterity, and hand and forearm dexterity. Kinematic profiles were created for all clinically relevant angles of the torso, shoulder, elbow, and wrist.… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
