Understanding stand-to-sit maneuver: Implications for motor system neuroprostheses after paralysis. J Rehabil Res Dev. 2014;51(9):1339–52. http://dx.doi.org/10.1682/JRRD.2013.12.0264 Slideshow Project DOI:10.1682/JRRD.2013.12.0264JSP Aim – Examine biomechanics of stand-to-sit (STS) maneuver in nondisabled individuals and individuals with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) who use implanted neuroprostheses. Relevance – STS maneuver involves eccentric contractions of quadriceps, which is difficult to achieve with stimulation alone and presents unique challenges to lower-limb neuroprostheses.

Biomechanics of STS were described and compared: – Impact forces, upper-limb forces, vertical acceleration at impact, knee and hip kinematics.
