Plastination of Upper And Lower Limbs with Injection of Colored Polymer into the Arteries
Purpose: Plastination is a unique technique of tissue preservation developed by Dr Gunther von hagnes in Hidelberg, Germany in 1978. In this process water and lipids are replaced by curable polymers (silicon, polyester, epoxy) which are subsequently hardened, resulting in dry, odorless and durable specimens. The aim of this study was to prepare plastinated specimen of upper and lower limbs by i...
متن کاملSalvage of limbs with vascular trauma.
In an eight-year period we treated 51 cases of vascular injury associated with fractures and/or dislocations or soft-tissue injuries of the limbs. We relied on a clinical diagnosis and immediate exploration of blood vessels rather than the time-consuming procedure of arteriography. All patients were operated on by the orthopaedic residents on duty and not by vascular surgeons. Only 17 (33%) wer...
متن کاملPeripheral muscle dysfunction in COPD: lower limbs versus upper limbs.
In patients with COPD, the degree of functional impairment appears to differ between the upper and lower limbs. Significant dyspnea and fatigue have been reported by these patients when performing tasks with unsupported upper limbs and two mechanisms have been proposed to explain this fact: neuromechanical dysfunction of respiratory muscles; and changes in lung volume during such activities. Th...
متن کاملThermographic Patterns of the Upper and Lower Limbs: Baseline Data
Objectives. To collect normative baseline data and identify any significant differences between hand and foot thermographic distribution patterns in a healthy adult population. Design. A single-centre, randomized, prospective study. Methods. Thermographic data was acquired using a FLIR camera for the data acquisition of both plantar and dorsal aspects of the feet, volar aspects of the hands, an...
متن کاملUpper and Lower Exoskeleton Limbs for Assistive and Rehabilitative Applications
Individuals with tetraplegia have loss of motor function in both their upper and lower extremities. Research is being conducted into the development of an exoskeleton to cater for the tetraplegic user. An exoskeleton system has the advantage of assisting disabled or rehabilitating patients without the need of surgery. This paper includes the conceptual design of an upper and lower limb exoskele...
