RISPronation–Supination Motion Is Altered in a Rat Model of Post-Traumatic Elbow Contracture
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The elbow joint is highly susceptible to joint contracture, and treating elbow contracture is a challenging clinical problem. Previously, we established an animal model to study elbow contracture that exhibited features ...
Functional Measures of Grip Strength and Gait Remain Altered Long-Term in a Rat Model of Post-Traumatic Elbow Contracture
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Post-traumatic joint contracture (PTJC) is a debilitating condition, particularly in the elbow. Previously, we established an animal model of elbow PTJC quantifying passive postmortem joint mechanics and histological changes ...
Anti-Inflammatory Treatment and Active Physical Therapy Have Differing Effects on Functional, Mechanical, and Histological Properties in a Rat Model of Post-Traumatic Elbow Contracture
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. Post-traumatic joint contracture (PTJC) frequently occurs in the elbow after injury, decreasing range of motion (ROM) and causing dysfunction. Physical therapy improves ROM but does not address underlying ...
