Evidence for a general stiffening motor control pattern in neck pain: A cross sectional study
Meisingset, Ingebrigt; Woodhouse, Astrid; Stensdotter, Ann-Katrin; Stavdahl, Øyvind; Lorås, Håvard W.; Gismervik, Sigmund Østgård; Andresen, Hege; Austreim, Kristian; Vasseljen, Ottar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Background: Neck pain is associated with several alterations in neck motion and motor control. Previous studies have investigated single constructs of neck motor control, while few have applied a comprehensive set of tests ... -
Frequency-dependent deficits in head steadiness in patients with nonspecific neck pain
Stensdotter, Ann-Katrin; Meisingset, Ingebrigt; Pedersen, Morten Dinhoff; Vasseljen, Ottar; Stavdahl, Øyvind (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Motor control impairments are reported in patients with nonspecific neck pain but the particular deficits in underlying regulatory systems are not known. Head steadiness is controlled both by voluntary and reflex systems ... -
Mechanisms controlling human head stabilization during random rotational perturbations in the horizontal plane revisited
Stensdotter, Ann-Katrin; Pedersen, Morten Dinhoff; Meisingset, Ingebrigt; Vasseljen, Ottar; Stavdahl, Øyvind (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)This study repeats the experimental protocol for investigation of head stabilization in healthy humans, described by Keshner and Peterson (1995) but with a modification of the analysis. Head movements were considered with ... -
Rigid head-neck responses to unpredictable perturbations in patients with long standing neck pain does not change with treatment
Stensdotter, Ann-Katrin; Stavdahl, Øyvind; Vasseljen, Ottar; Meisingset, Ingebrigt (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In a previous study we have shown that patients with long standing non-specific neck-pain display more rigid neck movement behavior than controls in response to unpredictable perturbations. In the present study we investigated ...
