Some experience with prosthetic problems of above-knee amputees.
F O R almost a dozen years the University of California has been active in prosthetics research. On the recommendation of the then Committee on Prosthetic Devices (now the Prosthetics Research Board) of the National Research Council, there was established in 1945, with the cosponsorship of the School of Medicine in San Francisco and the College of Engineering in Berkeley, the Prosthetic Devices...
متن کاملProsthetic programme after above-knee amputation in children with sarcomata.
A programme for early mobilisation using a temporary prosthesis was evaluated in 17 children who had had an amputation above the knee for sarcomata. The temporary prosthesis had a performed adjustable polypropylene quadrilateral socket which was able to accommodate changes in the size of the stump during the first few months after amputation. The adjustable sockets were assembled onto wooden kn...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Wearable Sensor-System for Real-Time Control of Knee Prostheses
It was demonstrated in recent studies that Complementary Limb Motion Estimation (CLME) is robust approach for controlling active knee prostheses. A wearable sensor system is then needed to provide inputs to the controller in a real-time platform. In the present work, a wearable sensor system based on magnetic and inertial measurement units (MIMU) together with a simple calibration procedure wer...
متن کاملWearable Sensor-Based Rehabilitation Exercise Assessment for Knee Osteoarthritis
Since the knee joint bears the full weight load of the human body and the highest pressure loads while providing flexible movement, it is the body part most vulnerable and susceptible to osteoarthritis. In exercise therapy, the early rehabilitation stages last for approximately six weeks, during which the patient works with the physical therapist several times each week. The patient is afterwar...
متن کاملStance phase control of above-knee prostheses: knee control versus SACH foot design.
The mobility of above-knee amputees (A/K) is limited, in part, due to the performance of A/K prostheses during the stance phase. Currently stance phase control of most conventional A/K prostheses can only be achieved through leg alignment and choice of the SACH (Solid Ankle Cushioned Heel) foot. This paper examines the role of the knee controller in relation to a SACH foot during the stance pha...
