Outcome after unilateral hypogastric artery occlusion during endovascular aneurysm repair.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the long-term functional outcome after unilateral hypogastric artery occlusion during endovascular stent graft repair of aortoiliac aneurysms. METHODS During a 41-month period, 157 consecutive patients underwent elective endovascular stent graft repair of aortoiliac aneurysms with the Medtronic AneuRx device. Postoperative computed tomography...
متن کاملIn vivo Shoulder Joint Loads during Walking with Crutches
After injuries, following hip and knee surgery, or because of partial spinal cord lesion, people are dependent on walking aids like crutches to unload the lower extremities. However, the mechanical load, transferred to the shoulder, has only been calculated by mathematical models with strong varying results [1]. In vivo measurements of the shoulder joint loads are therefore necessary to improve...
متن کاملAsymmetry in walking performance and postural sway in patients with chronic unilateral cerebral infarction.
The asymmetrical nature of hemiparetic gait is well known; however, the role of walking asymmetry for speed performance is unclear. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether the range of walking speeds in chronic hemiparetic patients is associated with their gait asymmetry and postural sway. Twenty ambulatory patients with chronic unilateral supratentorial infarction were studie...
متن کاملNeuroprosthesis for footdrop compared with an ankle-foot orthosis: effects on postural control during walking.
OBJECTIVES We sought to compare the effects of a radio frequency-controlled neuroprosthesis on gait stability and symmetry to the effects obtained with a standard ankle-foot orthosis (AFO). METHODS A total of 15 patients (mean age: 52.2 +/- 3.6 years) with prior chronic hemiparesis resulting from stroke or traumatic brain injury (5.9 +/- 1.5 year) whose walking was impaired by footdrop and re...
متن کاملGenerating electricity while walking with loads.
We have developed the suspended-load backpack, which converts mechanical energy from the vertical movement of carried loads (weighing 20 to 38 kilograms) to electricity during normal walking [generating up to 7.4 watts, or a 300-fold increase over previous shoe devices (20 milliwatts)]. Unexpectedly, little extra metabolic energy (as compared to that expended carrying a rigid backpack) is requi...
