Quasi-experimental pilot study to improve mobility and balance in recurrently falling nursing home residents by voluntary non-targeted side-stepping exercise intervention Open
Background Side-stepping is a potential exercise program to reduce fall risk in community-dwelling adults in their seventies, but it has never been tested in nursing home residents. This was a pilot quasi-experimental study to examine the …

Fine adaptive precision grip control without maximum pinch strength changes after upper limb neurodynamic mobilization Open
Before and immediately after passive upper limb neurodynamic mobilizations targeting the median nerve, grip ( $$G_F$$ ) and load ( $$L_F$$ ) forces applied by the thumb, index and major fingers (three-jaw chuck pinch) were collecte…

Timed Up and Go and Six-Minute Walking Tests with Wearable Inertial Sensor: One Step Further for the Prediction of the Risk of Fall in Elderly Nursing Home People Open
Assessing the risk of fall in elderly people is a difficult challenge for clinicians. Since falls represent one of the first causes of death in such people, numerous clinical tests have been created and validated over the past 30 years to …

Fine adaptive control of precision grip without maximum pinch strength changes after median nerve mobilization Open
Fine dexterity critically depends on information conveyed by the median nerve. While the effects of its compression and vibration are well characterized, little is known about longitudinal tension and excursion. Using a force-sensitive man…
