Achilles tendon vibration (ATV) alters proprioceptive input of the triceps surae muscles resulting in a posterior postural shift during standing. When this is applied in combination with a more dynamic proprioceptive perturbation, postural responses to ATV are attenuated. In this study, we applied ATV during self-paced, visually and auditory guided voluntary periodic sway in order to examine how the vibration-induced afferent input is processed and reweighted at the presence of inter-sensory guidance stimuli. Seventeen healthy adults (aged 26.7 ± 4.23 years) performed 15 cycles of periodic sway under three sensory guidance conditions: (a) self-paced, (b) auditory paced (0.25 Hz), and (c) visually driven by matching the resultant force vector to a target sine-wave (0.25 Hz). Bilateral ATV (80 Hz, 3 mm) was applied between the 5th and 10th sway cycles. ATV evoked an earlier burst onset and increased activity of the plantarflexors consistent with a reduction in the amplitude and duration of forward sway. This in turn resulted in an increase in dorsiflexors' activity in order to compensate for the greater backward sway. Postural responses to ATV were augmented when sway was auditory and visually guided. Forward sway variability increased with ATV and remained high while backward sway variability decreased in the post-vibration phase. Our results suggest that sensory context-dependent constraints that determine the degree of active control of posture and associated postural challenge involved in a particular task determine how the vibration-induced Ia afferent input will be registered and further processed by the central nervous system.
