Biomechanics of orthoses for the subluxed shoulder.

چکیده

Based on biomechanics several operational principles for the neutralization of a shoulder subluxation are described. The pros and cons of the operational principles are discussed. A detailed analysis of the forces acting on the upper and lower arm indicates a preference for only one of the operational principles and explains why the arm sling and hemisling fail in the elimination of subluxation. With the operational principle selected a shoulder orthosis has been developed. Clinical results are given.

Effect of Foot Orthoses on the Timing of Lower Limb Muscles Activity during Walking in Older Adults

Introduction: As a person gets older, their gait patterns change and their ability to walk decreases. Orthoses are used to relieve musculoskeletal disorders, skeletal problems, disabilities, etc. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of orthoses on timing of lower limb muscles in the older adults during gait. Methods: The present study was a clinical trial. 14 females ...

Effects of rigid and soft foot orthoses on dynamic balance in females with flatfoot

 Abstract Background: Various types of foot orthoses are prescribed for people with flatfoot. It has been reported that orthoses not only improve the biomechanics of the lower limb, but also have good effects on some balance parameters in these subjects. It is hypothesized that the latter effect is dependent on the rigidity of the orthoses. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the ...

Effect of Textured Foot Orthoses on the Ground Reaction Force Components in the Older Adults During Walking

Introduction: With aging, the pattern of walking is altered, and the person’s ability to walk will be decreased. Also, with the beginning of the aging process, the coordination of the postural control system was disturbed and lead to an unstable condition. A small biomechanical change in the lower limb is significant on postural control. The use of textured foot orthoses leads to improved effic...

Efficacy of Different Types of Foot Orthoses on Postural Control in Subjects With Lateral Ankle Sprain: A Systematic Review

Background and Objectives: Lateral ankle sprain is one of the most common injuries to the musculoskeletal system, especially among active people. This injury causes complex complications, such as recurrent sprain because of reduced postural control. Foot orthoses are among the interventions used to improve postural control in this population. This review aims to investigate foot orthoses to imp...

تأثیر خستگی عضلانی بر بیومکانیک طبیعی کمربند شانهای: مروری نظاممند بر مطالعات گذشته

Objective: Dynamic stability in shoulder is an important element in life and any disorder in muscular function which helps maintain this stability leads to shoulder pathology. One of these disturbing factors is fatigue. According to the research team information until now there has not been a study investigated systematically the effect of fatigue on shoulder girdle biomechanics. So the purpose...
