This study aims to investigate differences in spatiotemporal properties of the active movements in of the cervical spine in the sagittal plane in chronic WAD patients and healthy controls.
The primary aim of the proposed multi-site study will be to determine internal and external validity of the proposed new diagnostic criteria.
This study will give an insight in the incidence of cold intolerance of patients with a fracture of the hand. This study will also show if there is a relation between the rewarmingpattern and the cold intolerance of patients with a hand fracture.
The aim of this study is to assess biomechanical properties after a calcaneal fracture, and compare these data tot the radiological and functional outcome parameters. Hereby comparing healthy subjects to patients who were treated with ORIF (open…
