Recognizing the elbow prosthesis on conventional radiographs
The objective of this study was to make an overview that can be useful in determining which type and brand of prosthesis a patient has when visiting the emergency department or outpatient clinic with a periprosthetic fracture, dislocation, or implant failure. The commonly used prostheses in Europe are opted for this list. The radiographs used for this list are obtained either from the company o...
متن کاملDesign of High Torque Elbow Joint for Above Elbow Prosthesis
Above Elbow Prosthesis is one of the most commonly amputated or missing limbs. The research is done for modelling techniques of upper limb prosthesis and design of high torque, light weight and compact in size elbow actuator. The purposed actuator consists of a DC motor, planetary gear set and a harmonic drive. The calculations show that the actuator is good enough to be used in real life power...
متن کاملNew Approch for Elbow Prosthesis Technology
Elbow is a bone joint having a single axis and performing two movements: flexion and extension. Because this axis, passing through trochlea and humerus, is not perfectly transversal, but oriented from outside to inside, forward to backward and from up to low, during the two movements the forearm and the arm form an opened angle. Consequently, the complex movement guided around this axis suppose...
متن کاملOptimization of Myoelectric Elbow Prosthesis Transmission
Limb prosthesis can be cosmetic or functional and latter active or passive. The active prosthetic arms can be body powered or have external source of power. Myoelectric elbows can profitably substitute the passive ones, with patient willing, only if they can guarantee: durability, low noise, adequate torque, low power consumption, low weight, easy motion control and natural movements. Most of t...
متن کاملTHR Simulator – the software for generating radiographs of THR prosthesis
BACKGROUND Measuring the orientation of acetabular cup after total hip arthroplasty is important for prognosis. The verification of these measurement methods will be easier and more feasible if we can synthesize prosthesis radiographs in each simulated condition. One reported method used an expensive mechanical device with an indeterminable precision. We thus develop a program, THR Simulator, t...
