“…Several studies have found EMG at maximal and submaximal efforts to be reliable for both between and within testing sessions (Farrell and Richards, 1986;Mathur et al, 2005;Merletti et al, 2001;Staehli et al, 2010). Staehli et al (2010) investigated testretest EMG reliability of the quadriceps during voluntary torque generation of patients with OA.…”

“…Staehli et al (2010) investigated testretest EMG reliability of the quadriceps during voluntary torque generation of patients with OA. They found high retest reliability of the RF and VL (ICC = 0.93 and 0.94, respectively) during MVICs.…”

“…The significance level was set at alpha (a) 60.05. The reliability of our results was assessed with a random model, single measures intra-class correlation (ICC (2,1) ) -a method widely used to assess EMG reliability (Bolga and Uhl, 2007;Claiborne et al, 2009;Kollmitzer et al, 1999;Mathur et al, 2005;Meskers et al, 2004;Staehli et al, 2010). ICCs were calculated for each muscle and each direction for: (1) session 1's multiple measurements reliability, (2) session 2's multiple measurements reliability, and (3) session 1-2 (test-retest) reliability.…”

“…Electromyographic (EMG) recordings of knee joint musculature have been used as a reliable measure for evaluating voluntary muscle function in a variety of conditions (Bolga and Uhl, 2007;Claiborne et al, 2009;Staehli et al, 2010), especially isometric knee exercise (Mathur et al, 2005;Meskers et al, 2004;Rainoldi et al, , 2001. While the focus of these studies has been primarily on knee joint flexion-extension, Buchanan and Lloyd (1997) developed a force target matching protocol to evaluate muscle activation strategies while subjects isometrically produced force against a load cell in various combinations of knee flexion-extension and varus-valgus loading directions, as these would be more reflective of physiological loading conditions.…”

Objective. To investigate the efficacy of 4 weeks of preoperative and 4 weeks of postoperative progressive resistance training (PRT), compared to 4 weeks of postoperative PRT only on functional performance, muscle strength, and patient-reported outcomes in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods. In total, 59 patients were randomized to 4 weeks of preoperative PRT (intervention group) or to a group who lived as usual (control group). Both groups performed 4 weeks of PRT after TKA. At 6 weeks and 1 week before TKA, and at 1, 6, and 12 weeks after TKA, performance-based measures (30-second chair stand test [30sCST], timedup-and-go [TUG], and walking tests), knee extensor and flexor muscle strength (dynamometry), patient-reported functional performance, health-related quality of life, and pain scores were evaluated. Results. When comparing the changes from baseline to the primary test point 6 weeks after TKA, a significant group difference in favor of the intervention group was found for the 30sCST (2. Conclusion. Supervised preoperative PRT is an efficacious and safe intervention for improving postoperative functional performance and muscle strength, but improvements in patient-reported outcomes were not detected.
