Title: Coordination changes in a selected remote part of the locomotor system when walking in straight shoes and high heels. Objective: The aim of the dissertation is to find out how walking on a high heel affects the coordination changes and timing of the beginning of muscle activation in a selected part of the musculoskeletal system in comparison with walking in shoes with straight soles. Methods: This research work has an empirical, comparative intra-individual character. Comparative analysis of coordination characteristics of the locomotor system with the experimental character of obtaining quantitative data. We used a portable electromyograph BIOMONITOR ME6000 (Mega Electronics Ltd., Finland) to monitor changes in the timing of muscle coordination during walking in flat-soled and high-heeled shoes on flat terrain and on a treadmill. We recorded the synchronized video on a Sony HDR-SR12 digital video camera (SONY Co., Japan). Motor units and their electrical potential were sensed by self-adhesive homologated hydrogels electrodes MEDICO LEAD-LOK (Medico Electrodes Int., India, ISO 13485: 2003). The research group consisted of 30 healthy women (age 25 ± 5 years, weight 57 ± 7 kg, height 16 ± 5 cm, BMI 21 ± 3), all respondents are occasional wearers of high-heeled shoes. Results: We confirmed the...
