Abstract:
Objective To investigate the activities of infraspinatus (IS) and posterior deltoid (PD) under shoulder external rotation at open kinetic chain (OKC) and closed kinetic chain (CKC) exercise with shoulder abduction 0° and 90° to determine the optimal external rotation rehabilitation exercise.Methods From April to June, 2018, 19 healthy adults finished the movement of 0° OKC, 0° CKC, 90° OKC and 90°CKC. The root mean square (RMS) of IS and PD was recorded with surface electromyography (sEMG), then the standardized RMS (RMS%), ratio of IS/PD and onset time of activation were calculated.Results RMS% of PD was the minimal at 90° CKC, and was less than that of 0° CKC (P < 0.05). IS/PD was the most at90° CKC, and was more than that of 90° OKC (P < 0.05). The onset time of IS was the earliest in 90° CKC, and earlier than that of 90° OKC (P < 0.05) and 0°OKC (P < 0.05). The onset time of PD was the latest in 0° CKC, and latter than that of 90° OKC (P < 0.05).Conclusion 90°CKC activates IS mostly and earliest, which can be used in early rehabilitation for rotator cuff injury.
