Developmental research in paraplegic walking.
An injured London policeman's fight to stand and walk again, despite the handicap ofcomplete paraplegia at thoracic level from a gunshot wound, captured the public imagination last year. British journalists hailed as an important breakthrough his treatment-firstly, with an electrical stimulation system (functional electrical stimulation) for the paralysed lower limb musculature, then using a sp...
متن کاملKinematic modeling of four-point walking patterns in paraplegic subjects
We present a kinematic model of a paraplegic subject walking with crutches where the subject with the crutches is modeled as a parallel kinematic structure. The model is employed to investigate if certain quadrupedal gait patterns can be implemented with functional electrical stimulation. The study is motivated by the fact that the existing crutch-assisted gait realized by the electrical stimul...
متن کاملPerformance improvement of walker-assisted FES-supported paraplegic walking
In this paper we present a method to generate optimal stimulation pattern for walker-assisted paraplegic walking using FES systems. To determine the stimulation patterns, a musculoskeletal model of walker-assisted FES-supported paraplegic walking is introduced. The optimal stimulation patterns are determined through minimizing the trajectory tracking error of the lower body and mechanical energ...
متن کاملThe Walking Recovery One Year after Surgical Management of Thoracolumbar Burst Fracture in Paraplegic Patients
The aim of this study was to highlight the walking recovery after surgical management of traumatic burst fractures at the thoracolumbar junction (T10 or T11 or T12 or L1) in paraplegic patients to decide what surgeons should tell their patients to help them develop realistic expectations and potentially improve their outcome. This is a series of adult patients presented with paraplegia from iso...
متن کاملImplementation of GA in Designing Control System for Paraplegic Walking Movement using Walker
Abstract: Due to the complex nature of the humanoid model structure and unavailability of its mathematical model, the model of humanoid structure is developed and then simulated in MSC Visual Nastran to find the dynamics of humanoid model walk with walker and the reference trajectories for normal walk are obtained. Further estimation of the joint torques and the development of a controller to c...
