Figure 6. Partial tear with immobilization functional properties: Passive joint motion.

Figure 6.

The 3 hours of PEMF group demonstrated (A) decreased joint range of motion at 2 weeks compared to controls, and at 6 weeks, this metric was decreased for both PEMF groups. However, there were no significant differences in (B) joint stiffness in either plantarflexion or (C) dorsiflexion. Data is presented as mean±SD at each time point. (a) denotes significant difference between non-PEMF and 1 hr Physio-Stim PEMF (p<0.025); (b) denotes significant difference between non-PEMF and 3 hrs Physio-Stim PEMF (p<0.025).
