Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of dynamic contraction to antagonist coactivity ratios during the stroke patient's knees exercise passively initiatively and resistively.Methods 24 stroke patients as observation group and 17 normal subjects as control group had performed dynamic contractions in knee flexion and extension. The electromyography signals were collected by surface electrode and then processed by linear time-and frequency-domain method. And then the antagonistic coactivity ratio was analyzed with factors statistics.Results The antagonist coactivity ratios of MF(median frequency) and MPF(mean power frequency) in paretic side of patients got high significantly but in non-paretic side got low significantly. But the antagonistic coactivity ratios of AEMG(average EMG) in paretic side got low and in non-paretic side got high significantly (P<0.01). The antagonist coactivity ratios of MF and AEMG in activity side were lower than in non-activity side (P<0.05). The antagonist coactivity ratios of MPF in exercise passively were lower significantly. The antagonist coactivity ratios of AEMG were lower following as the work load increased (P<0.001).Conclusion The motor unites are collected excessively in antagonist from paretic side of the stroke patient. The level of the synchronization of the excitement got low. The muscle strength got weak. But both the motor unites collected and the motor unites excited in antagonist from non-paretic side are excessive. The muscle strength get strong.
