Using Standing Postures as a Practical Alternative to Gait Analysis for Assessing Normal Neuromotor Activity Variation of the Ankle Muscle Antagonists: A Soleus H-reflex and EMG Activity Study Comparing Patients with Hemiplegia to Healthy Subjects
The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the soleus H-reflex amplitudes recorded in three standing postures between a group of patients with stroke and a group of healthy subjects. Nine ambulatory patients were compared with 10 healthy subjects. Measures were recorded during quiet stand...
