Muscle Activation in Upper Limb While Driving Powered Wheelchair

Study on muscle activation in upper limb during forward, left turn, and right turn in powered wheelchair with bimanual gliding and joystick control interfaces. Significant difference between manual and non-manual wheelchair users and control interface groups. EMG data collection during driving. Research by Lin et al. (2013) published in J Rehabil Res Dev.

  1. Figure 4. Muscle activation of upper limb while driving powered wheelchair (a) forward, (b) making a left turn, and (c) making a right turn with two types of control interface (bimanual gliding [BG] and conventional joystick [CJ]). *Significant differences between MWCU and NMWCU group, p < 0.05 using independent t-tests. †Significant difference between BG and CJ group, p < 0.05 using paired t-tests. ECR = extensor carpi radialis, EMG = electro-myography, FCR = flexor carpi radialis, MVC = maximal voluntary contraction, MWCU = manual wheelchair user; NMWCU = non–manual wheelchair user.
