Neuromuscular Strength and Balance Testing

Biodex System offers pioneering breakthroughs in neuromuscular testing technology. It features 5 modes of operations: isokinetic, isometric, isotonic, passive motion, and reactive eccentric modes. PEAK Human Performance Science Clinical Research Lab offers multiple protocols to assess upper- and lower-body muscular strength testing. Biodex System can also integrate with wireless EMG sensors to assess muscle activity during muscular strength testing.

Isometric strength can be measured by a handgrip dynamometer using a grip strength test. This assesses the maximal voluntary contraction generated by the arm muscles and is highly correlated with overall body strength.

The PEAK Human Performance Science Clinical Research Lab offers a complete easy-to-use solution for quantifying and evaluating human balance in clinical studies by measuring three forces and three moments involved in balance, providing outputs that allow easy computation of the center-of-pressure coordinates. The force plate system can also be used to develop balance interventions for study participants.
