Subacromial impingement syndrome: the effect of changing posture on shoulder Range of Movement.
Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 2005Co-Authors: Jeremy Lewis, Christine C. Wright, Ann GreenAbstract:Study Design Random allocation of subjects into a placebo-controlled, crossover study. Objectives To investigate the effect of changing thoracic and scapular posture on shoulder flexion and scapular plane abduction Range of motion in asymptomatic subjects, and in subjects with subacromial impingement syndrome. Background Changes in upper body posture and concomitant imbalance of the muscle system have been proposed as one of the etiological mechanisms leading to subacromial impingement syndrome. Although clinicians commonly assess posture and devise rehabilitation programs to correct posture, there is little evidence to support this practice. Methods and Materials Selected postural, Range of Movement, and pain measurements were investigated in 60 asymptomatic subjects and 60 subjects with subacromial impingement syndrome, prior to and following thoracic and scapular taping intended to change their posture. Results Changing posture had an effect on all components of posture measured (P

SofT TISSUE RELEASE AND Range of Movement FOLLOWING TKR
2009Co-Authors: S. Yousufuddin, D. Chesney, M. Van Der Linden, Richard W. NuttonAbstract:Objective: To evaluate the impact of soft tissue release on Range of Movement following total knee replacement. Methods: Sixty four patients underwent PFC sigma total knee replacement through a medial arthrotomy. Range of active Movement was measured preoperatively, and maximal flexion was measured after implantation, using the drop test while the patient was under anaesthetic. Soft tissue release was graded from 1 to 5, depending on the structures released. Range of Movement was correlated with extent of soft tissue release, to see if release had any impact on increase in Range of Movement. Results: All patients had an improvement in Range of Movement following surgery. Post operative Range of Movement correlated strongly with preoperative ROM. Patients requiring extensive releases tended to have less preoperative ROM, but the gain was independent of medial release. Those requiring extensive posterior release had poorer preoperative Movement, and significantly less improvement. In those requiring an extensive medial release, a posterior release improved gain in ROM. Conclusion: Postoperative ROM following TKR is independent of extent of medial release. In patients requiring extensive medial release, a posterior release improves gain in Movement.

SofT TISSUE RELEASE AND Range of Movement FOLLOWING TOTAL KNEE REPLACEMENT
2008Co-Authors: S. Yousufuddin, D. Chesney, M. Van Der Linden, Richard W. NuttonAbstract:Objective: To evaluate the impact of soft tissue release on Range of Movement following total knee replacement. Methods: Sixty four patients underwent next-gen (Zimmer) posterior stabilising total knee replacement through a medial arthrotomy. Range of active Movement was measured preoperatively, and maximal flex-ion was measured after implantation, using the drop test while the patient was under anaesthetic. Soft tissue release was graded from 1 to 5, depending on the structures released. Range of Movement (ROM) was correlated with extent of soft tissue release, to see if release had any impact on increase in Range of Movement. Results: All patients had an improvement in Range of Movement following surgery. Post operative Range of Movement correlated strongly with preoperative ROM. Patients requiring extensive releases tended to have less preoperative ROM, but the gain was independent of medial release. Those requiring extensive posterior release had poorer preoperative Movement, and significantly less improvement. In those requiring an extensive medial release, a posterior release improved gain in ROM. Conclusion: Postoperative ROM following TKR is independent of extent of medial release.

The effect of patella resurfacing in total knee arthroplasty on functional Range of Movement measured by flexible electrogoniometry
Clinical Biomechanics, 2006Co-Authors: C.m. Myles, Richard W. Nutton, Philip Rowe, Richard BurnettAbstract:The need for patella resurfacing remains an area of considerable controversy in total knee replacement surgery. There would appear to be no reported evidence on the effect of patella resurfacing on knee function, as measured by functional Range of Movement used in a series of tasks, in patients undergoing knee replacement. The object of this study was to measure knee joint motion during functional activities both prior to and following total knee replacement in a randomised group of patients with and without patella resurfacing and to compare these patient groups with a group of normal age-matched subjects. No statistically significant differences (alpha level 0.05) in joint excursion of the affected knee were found between patients who received patella resurfacing and those who did not. Routine patella resurfacing in a typical knee arthroplasty population does not result in an increase in the functional Range of Movement used after knee replacement.

Knee joint functional Range of Movement prior to and following total knee arthroplasty measured using flexible electrogoniometry
Gait & Posture, 2002Co-Authors: C.m. Myles, Philip Rowe, C. R. C. Walker, Richard W. NuttonAbstract:The functional Ranges of Movement of the knee were investigated in a group of patients with knee osteoarthritis (n = 42, mean age 70 years) before, 4 months and at 18-24 months after total knee arthroplasty and then compared with age matched normal subjects (n = 20, mean age 67 years). Flexible electrogoniometry was used to record the maximum flexion-extension angle, the minimum flexion-extension angle and flexion-extension excursions of both knees during eleven functional activities along with the active and passive knee joint Range of motion measured using a manual goniometer. Over the eleven functional activities the patients pre-operatively exhibited 28% less knee joint excursion than normal age matched subjects. By 18-24 months following total knee arthroplasty only 2% of this deficit was recovered. Statistically this recovery was only significant in level walking, slope ascent and slope descent. A greater Range of Movement was measured in a non-weight bearing position than was used in weight bearing functional activity. It is concluded that total knee arthroplasty gives rise to little improvement in knee motion during functional activities and that functional Range of Movement of the knee remains limited when compared to normal knee function for a minimum of 18 months following operation.

Three‐dimensional lumbar spinal kinematics: a study of Range of Movement in 100 healthy subjects aged 20 to 60+ years
Rheumatology, 2000Co-Authors: G Van Herp, Philip Rowe, Pm Salter, John P. PaulAbstract:The three-dimensional (3D) Range of Movement of the non-pathological lumbar spine was established using the Polhemus Navigation Sciences 3Space Isotrak system. One hundred subjects (50 male, 50 female) ranging in age from 20 to 77 yr and with no history of recent low back pain participated in the study. Each subject performed the gross Movements of forward flexion, backward extension, side-flexion to the left and right and axial rotation to the left and right. All Movements were carried out at the subject's own pace. The results indicated consistently greater flexibility in females than males throughout the age Range. Differences in Ranges of motion were recorded between younger and older age groups. The recorded Ranges of motion showed a good level of agreement with X-ray data, indicating concurrent validity and reasonable similarity with previous 3D studies using electromagnetic goniometers. It would appear that the methods used in this study are capable of measuring the lumbar spinal Range of motion routinely in the clinical environment.
