Thermographic 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 کاملPlastination 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 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 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...
متن کاملCable-Driven Robot for Upper and Lower Limbs Rehabilitation
The science of rehabilitation shows that repeated movements of human limbs can help the patient regain function in the injured limb. There are three types of mechanical systems used for movement rehabilitation: robots, cable-driven manipulators, and exoskeletons. Industrial robots can be used because they provide a three-dimensional workspace with a wide range of flexibility to execute differen...
