Application of the Veterans Administration Prosthetics Center below-knee, weight-bearing brace to a bilateral case.
1 1 Based upon a recent study at the Veterans Administration Prosthetics Center. Administration Brooklyn Outpatient Clinic, who suggested that his patient "be fitted as a below-knee amputee." The Veterans Administration has many beneficiaries who suffer from an inability to bear weight on their feet. Etiologies include gunshot wounds, crushing injuries, painful ankylosis, arthritis, and other c...
متن کاملInterface pressure profile analysis for patellar tendon-bearing socket and hydrostatic socket.
Conventionally, patellar tendon-bearing (PTB) sockets, which need high dexterity of prosthetist, are widely used. Lack of chartered and experienced prosthetist has often led to painful experience of wearing prosthesis and this will in turn deter the patients to wear the prosthesis, which will further aggravate stump shrinkage. Thus, the hydrostatic socket which demands relatively lower level of...
متن کاملA new directly moulded patellar-tendon-bearing socket.
Silicone rubbers and casting tapes individually have previously been used in the manufacture of sockets (Swanson, 1972; Sweitzer, 1973; Ruder, 1977; Graves, 1980; Aqualite, 1982). The authors believe that the present combination of these materials to manufacture a directly moulded socket with a complete silicone rubber lining of variable thickness has not previously been described. The new sock...
متن کاملRelationship between balance and maximum strength in weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing closed kinetic chain exercises
Balance and strength are important abilities that athletes should have them. This study was designed to investigate the relationship between maximum leg press (non-weight bearing closed kinetic chain) and squat (weight bearing closed kinetic chain) strength with statistic and dynamic balance. Thirty (15 men and 15 women) physically active participants (age, 22.13 ± 1.54 years; height, 171.26 ± ...
متن کاملThe effects of a dynamic patellar realignment brace on disease determinants for patellofemoral instability in the upright weight-bearing condition
BACKGROUND Patellar stabilizing braces are used to alleviate pain and prevent subluxation/dislocation by having biomechanical effects in terms of improved patellar tracking. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of the dynamic patellar realignment brace, Patella Pro (Otto Bock GmbH, Duderstadt, Germany), on disease determinants in subjects with patellofemoral instability using upr...
