Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Kinetic and kinematic parameters such as joint rotations, moments and powers along with EMG will be primary parameters. The data will be analysed using the clinical manager for kinetic and kinematic outcomes. EMG will be analysed to differentiate phasic activity patterns of the muscles in question The cross correlation analysis will also be carried out to see if there is any evidence of overlap of EMG between the 2 muscles by comparing EMG measured with surface and fine wire electrodes. With electrical stimulation experiments same set of electrodes will be used and the EMG will be analysed in similar fashion (cross correlation studies) to see isolation of response to stimulation.	—
