Identification of Patellar Tendon Reflex Based on Simple Kinematic Measurement

This paper presents a method for quantifying tendon reflex dynamics addressing kinematical characteristics of the patellar tendon reflex. The method uses a limb-mounted three-dimensional motion sensor and an instrumented hammer to assess input-output relations of the patellar tendon reflex. A health...
