Abstract

In this study, we investigated whether a difference in the angular velocity has an effect on proprioceptive sensibility in 30 healthy subjects. Knee detection of passive motion at five angular velocities (0.1°/s, 0.2°/s, 0.3°/s, 0.4°/s, and 0.5°/s) was carried out from a starting position of 15° knee flexion for extension using a proprioception testing device. At 0.1°/s, the elapsed time was longer than that of the other angular velocities and the angular displacement was bigger as well. There were no significant differences among the remaining angular velocities (0.2～0.5°/s). Therefore it is suggested that a healthy knee has less proprioception at an angular velocity of 0.1°/s.
