• Description:
  Fatigue induced neck or cervical spine pain is a common problem among various occupational groups. Flexion-relaxation (FR) behavior of the extensor muscles provides an effective method for the assessment of neuromuscular impairment. Although a few studies have shown a significant impact of muscle fatigue on the FR parameters for lumbar spine, currently, the effect of fatigue on the FR parameters for cervical spine is not well studied. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of fatigue on the neck extensor muscles' FR parameters. Muscle activity and kinematic data from 10 healthy male subjects were recorded using surface electromyography and optical motion capture systems, respectively... [Description provided by NIOSH]
