Effects of wrist and finger posture on finger independence
Intended actions of one finger produce involuntary movement or force in other fingers. Mechanical and neural factors limit finger independence. The interplay between anatomical factors, wrist and finger postures, and finger independence remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of wrist and metacarpophalangeal (MCP) posture on involuntary finger forces and extensor digitorum (ED) activity. Twenty participants performed submaximal isometric finger extensions in three wrist positions (30° extension, neutral, and 30° flexion) and two MCP postures (straight and 90° flexion). Involuntary index finger force increased with MCP flexion, suggesting the importance of intertendinous connections in finger independence. Consistent with previous research, ED activity was generally higher in wrist extension than neutral and flexed postures. Understanding the role of passive properties within the hand may help us improve finger rehabilitation strategies.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Electromyography & Kinesiology is the primary source for outstanding original articles on the study of human movement from muscle contraction via its motor units and sensory system to integrated motion through mechanical and electrical detection techniques.
As the official publication of the International Society of Electrophysiology and Kinesiology, the journal is dedicated to publishing the best work in all areas of electromyography and kinesiology, including: control of movement, muscle fatigue, muscle and nerve properties, joint biomechanics and electrical stimulation. Applications in rehabilitation, sports & exercise, motion analysis, ergonomics, alternative & complimentary medicine, measures of human performance and technical articles on electromyographic signal processing are welcome.
