- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The observation of the presence of asymmetrical both in tonic and phasic activation of symmetrical muscular groups and patellar misalignment at the passage from the supine to the sitting position and vice versa and the quantification of this misalignment with a non invasive calibre that we have specifically devised, with 1-mm-resolution.[The observational and measurement trial consisted of two following sessions. In every session we have take three observations and measurements: immediately, after five minutes the second and after other five minutes the third session. The second session like the first one was carried out after fifteen minutes.]
