BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS OF HUMAN MOVEMENT IN THE FUNCTION OF SPORTS TRAUMATOLOGY

Sažetak
Modern approach to human movement diagnostics,
for both medical as well as for various sportive
application purposes, resides on laboratory biomechanical
measurements and analyses. Experimental
data encompass spatial kinematic variables, ground
reaction force, and multi-channel surface electromyography
(EMG). Through inverse dynamic approach
mathematical estimation of internal forces and moments
in virtual joint centres is accomplished. A procedure is
presented in realms of a modern equipped laboratory
facility at the Faculty of Kinesiology, where various
movement patterns may be measured and analysed
biomechanically. An example from the area of sports
traumatology is taken for illustration. The aim was to
evaluate the function of the knee joint as well as to
improve the diagnostic and treatment procedures.
Measurement of gait, in addition to certain specifically
designed tests, was used.
The approach described (lacking some methods such
as the oxygen consumption measurement and
pedobarography) represents a „state-of-the-art“
methodology in the area of human movement analysis.
For its efficient use, it is essential for inter-disciplinary
collaboration to take place, primarily collaboration
between medical specialists, biomechanicians, kinesiologists
and technical experts.
