Adaptive Staircase Measurement of Hand Proprioception
Clinicians and researchers often need to measure proprioception (position sense), for example to monitor the progress of disease, to identify the cause of movement or balance problems, or to ascertain the effects of an intervention. While researchers can use sophisticated equipment to estimate proprioceptive acuity with good precision, clinicians lack this option and must rely on the subjective...
متن کاملA novel device for the measurement of proprioception in the hand.
BACKGROUND Together with visual information, awareness of limb position and movement is essential for limb coordination. A proprioceptive deficit has been demonstrated in a number of rheumatological disorders. There is a lack of a portable device for measuring hand proprioception in the field. METHODS A compact portable device for measuring joint position sense in the metacarpophalangeal join...
متن کاملLUCS Haptic Hand III An Anthropomorphic Robot Hand with Proprioception
The Lucs Haptic Hand III has been built as a step in a project at LUCS aiming at studying haptic perception. In this project, several robot hands together with cognitive computational models of the corresponding human neurophysiologic systems will be built. Grasping tests with the LUCS Haptic Hand III were done with six different objects in order to get a comprehension of the signal patterns fr...
متن کاملFast and accurate measurement of taste and smell thresholds using a maximum-likelihood adaptive staircase procedure.
This paper evaluates the use of a maximum-likelihood adaptive staircase psychophysical procedure (ML-PEST), originally developed in vision and audition, for measuring detection thresholds in gustation and olfaction. The basis for the psychophysical measurement of thresholds with the ML-PEST procedure is developed. Then, two experiments and four simulations are reported. In the first experiment,...
متن کاملAutomated measurement of proprioception following stroke.
BACKGROUND Proprioception provides feedback which is essential for adequate motor control. Despite having detrimental functional implications, the assessment of proprioception deficits in current clinical practice is mostly qualitative and inadequate for diagnosis and longitudinal monitoring of subtle impairments and their effect on motor function. PURPOSE To evaluate a novel quantitative app...
