Reachable workspace in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) by kinect

ABSTRACT Introduction: A depth‐ranging sensor (Kinect) based upper extremity motion analysis system was applied to determine the spectrum of reachable workspace encountered in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). Methods: Reachable workspaces were obtained from 22 individuals with FSHD and...

Zusammenfassung:	ABSTRACT Introduction: A depth‐ranging sensor (Kinect) based upper extremity motion analysis system was applied to determine the spectrum of reachable workspace encountered in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). Methods: Reachable workspaces were obtained from 22 individuals with FSHD and 24 age‐ and height‐matched healthy controls. To allow comparison, total and quadrant reachable workspace relative surface areas (RSAs) were obtained by normalizing the acquired reachable workspace by each individual's arm length. Results: Significantly contracted reachable workspace and reduced RSAs were noted for the FSHD cohort compared with controls (0.473 ± 0.188 vs. 0.747 ± 0.082; P
