Positioning Errors in Simple Targeted Movements of the Forearm Realized in the Absence of Visual Control: Effects of Vibrational Stimulation of Antagonist Muscles
Abstract:In 17 healthy subjects, we examined the characteristics of targeted movements of the forearm, flexion from the initial position of full extension taken as 0 deg to a 50 deg target angle in the elbow joint (flexor tests, FTs) and extension from the initial angle of 100 deg to the same target angle (extensor tests, ETs) with return to the initial positions. A standard movement (its trajectory corresponded to a simple trapezium) was performed under conditions of visual feedback (the value of the target angle and … Show more
