Development of a functional Trunk STability Test (TRUSTT)
The Development of a novel trunk stability test for the dynamic assessment of the movement control in a sedentary posture
Description
This project involves the development of a trunk stability test.
Existing, established tests focus on static muscle activation. This project aims to take into account the muscular dynamics involved in trunk stability.
This enables efficient measurement of trunk stability, which is representative of the clinical outcome measures after (neuro-) therapy.
