Investigating the effects of Lycra Arm sleeve on shoulder girdle in healthy people (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Kumar, P., Desai, A., & Elliot, L. (2018, October). Investigating the effects of Lycra Arm sleeve on shoulder girdle in healthy people. Poster presented at British Association of Physicians of Indian Origin (BAPIO) Conference, October 2018, Bristol, UK

Introduction: Glenohumeral subluxation (GHS) is reported in up to 81% of patients with stroke. Our previous feasibility study on people with chronic stroke (n¼5) reported reduction in GHS following wearing of the Lycra sleeve. However, the mechanis...

Does Lycra sleeve alter biomechanics of shoulder in people with post-stroke hemiplegia - A mechanistic study (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Kumar, P., Macleod, L., Mohan, P., Wheeler, W., & Wai Tse, G. (2018, October). Does Lycra sleeve alter biomechanics of shoulder in people with post-stroke hemiplegia - A mechanistic study. Poster presented at British Association of Physicians of Indian Origin (BAPIO) conference, Bristol, England

Abstract Introduction Glenohumeral subluxation (GHS) is reported in up to 81% of patients with stroke. Our previous studies found that a Lycra sleeve can reduce acromion-greater tuberosity distance (used for assessment of GHS) in people with chronic...
