■随着运动捕捉技术在运动员监控和重返比赛评估中变得越来越流行,必须在参与者之间对主干力学进行类似的建模。这项研究的目的是确定在步态和垂直跳跃(DVJ)过程中如何调整胸骨上的标记物放置或去除潜在的阻塞标记物,以跟踪躯干段,从而影响躯干运动学。
■针对定义模型和三个躯干模型变化计算了18名参与者的矢状平面躯干角度。特别选择模型变化以避免由于运动胸罩覆盖和/或闭塞而在女性参与者中放置胸骨和/或胸部标记物的困难。计算每个树干模型变化的组内相关系数,以确定与定义模型的一致性。
■中胸骨模型,其中剑突标记被调整到剑突和颈静脉切迹的中点,在两项任务中都表现出最小的差异和与定义模型的极好一致性。或者,无胸腔模型,其中胸部标记被移除,在DVJ期间表现出最大的运动学差异,并且在两个任务中都表现出中等到极好的一致性。
■在动态任务中选择跟踪躯干运动的标记集必须包括可以类似地放置在所有参与者上的位置。基于这些发现,在收集动态试验之前,可以对剑突过程标记进行高级调整。用于跟踪躯干段的推荐模型包括颈静脉切迹上的标记放置,胸骨中部,第1和第10胸椎棘突。
UNASSIGNED: As motion capture technology becomes more popular for athlete monitoring and return-to-play evaluation, it is imperative that trunk mechanics are modeled similarly across participants. The purpose of this study was to determine how adjusting marker placement at the sternum or removing potentially occluded markers for purposes of tracking the trunk segment influences trunk kinematics during gait and a drop vertical jump (DVJ).
UNASSIGNED: Sagittal plane trunk angles of 18 participants were computed for a Definition Model and three trunk model variations. Model variations were specifically chosen to avoid difficulties with placement of the sternum and/or thorax markers in female participants due to sports bra coverage and/or occlusion. Intraclass correlation coefficients were computed per trunk model variation to determine agreement with the Definition Model.
UNASSIGNED: The Mid-Sternum model, in which the xiphoid process marker was adjusted to the midpoint of the xiphoid process and jugular notch, exhibited the least discrepancies and excellent agreement with the Definition Model across both tasks. Alternatively, the No-Thorax model, in which the thorax marker was removed, exhibited the greatest kinematic differences during the DVJ and moderate to excellent agreement across both tasks.
UNASSIGNED: The marker set chosen to track trunk motion during dynamic tasks must include locations that can be placed similarly on all participants. Based on these findings, the xiphoid process marker may be adjusted superiorly prior to the collection of dynamic trials. The recommended model for tracking the trunk segment includes marker placements on the jugular notch, mid-sternum, and 1st and 10th thoracic spinous processes.
