Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the acute effects of isometric exercise on pain modulation and muscle oxygenation in individuals with rheumatoid arthritis.

Conditions

  • Isometric Exercise
  • Pain
  • Oxygenation

Interventions

Exercise

To determine isometric exercise intensity, a maximum repetition will be calculated individually using a handheld dynamometer. One maximum repetition will be defined as the highest value among the trials where participants squeezed the handheld dynamometer as hard as possible for 5 seconds. The average of 3 repetitions will be taken to determine one maximum repetition, with a 1-2 minute rest period between each repetition. 30% of one maximum repetition will be determined. The exercise will begin five minutes after this stage. During the exercise task, participants will squeeze the dynamometer at 30% of one maximum repetition for 3 consecutive minutes, adjusting the applied force as needed to maintain the desired strength level.
