Conditions

Forearm Muscle Strain

Brief summary

This study will be featured as a randomized controlled. As the dependent variable, was considered isometric grip manual force. As independent variable, the presence or absence of forearm bandage in the fist flexor region of the volunteers.

Detailed description

This study is directed to the population of students at the University of Mogi das Cruzes (UMC), and will take part of this study forty volunteers, twenty men and twenty women, aged from eighteen and thirty-eight years old. Will be selected and included volunteers who do not do physical professional activity with upper members, which have no symptom of pain skeletal muscle in the upper members, which have not undergone any type of surgery in the region of the forearm and hand of both members. Will be excluded the volunteers who have injuries, joint injuries, neuromuscular disorder or those who have knowledge of own vestibular or neurological changes. Will also be excluded from study volunteers who do not agree to participate after reading and understanding of informed consent in accordance with resolution 466/12 of the National Ethics Committee and Research. The data acquisition interface will be acquired by an electromyography e a standard of strentgh will maintened in forty Newtons assured by an electronic dynamometer for tests of palmar prehension without and with bandages. The volunteers will not know what kind of intervention will pass. After each application before testing, their both forearms will be covered with a protection. The researcher and the volunteers will not know the tests order.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTWithout bandages

All volunteers will be held the grasping force measurements without application of elastic adhesive bandage or micropore

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTWith placebo

All volunteers will be held the grasping force measurements with application of micropore (placebo) on his forearm in both upper members

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTWith bandage

All volunteers will be held the grasping force measurements with application of bandage without tension in the forearm in both upper members

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTWith tensioned bandage

All volunteers will be held the grasping force measurements with application of bandage with twenty five percent tensioned on the forearm in both upper members
