Differences in muscle activity and intermuscular coordination between dominant and non-dominant hands during chopstick manipulation

The dominant hand showed coordination of the first and second lumbrical muscles, whereas the non-dominant hand showed no muscle activation patterns between the muscles. Therefore, it is important to emphasize the first and second lumbrical in the non-dominant hand during rehabilitation to improve the coordination between the muscles of the two hands during chopstick manipulation to effectively improve chopstick manipulation skills in the non-dominant hand.

Abstract

The dominant hand showed coordination of the first and second lumbrical muscles, whereas the non-dominant hand showed no muscle activation patterns between the muscles. Therefore, it is important to emphasize the first and second lumbrical in the non-dominant hand during rehabilitation to improve the coordination between the muscles of the two hands during chopstick manipulation to effectively improve chopstick manipulation skills in the non-dominant hand.
