Official title
The Effectiveness of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation Exercise With Virtual Reality Motion Capture Gaming System and Concurrent Feedback on Early Shoulder Muscle Activation in Healthy Individuals
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The study explores the effect of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) exercises combined with virtual reality (VR) motion capture system and concurrent feedback (CF), on early shoulder muscle activation in healthy individuals. Thirty healthy individuals performed three PNF D2 shoulder exercises sequentially: first PNF alone, then PNF with VR (using U-Ball game (BeCure Global Inc.) on Xbox Kinect (PNF+VR), and PNF with VR and CF (PNF+VR+CF), with the latter two in a randomized order. Using wireless surface electromyography (EMG) and 3D inertial measurement units (Noraxon USA, Inc.), the activation of the upper trapezius (UT), lower trapezius (LT), infraspinatus (INF), and serratus anterior muscles (SA), along with shoulder flexion, abduction, and external rotation range of motion were recorded during three shoulder exercises.
