Primary Outcome Measures

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

Secondary Outcome Measures
