Direct Measurement of 3D Force and Moment on Lower-Limb Osseointegrated Fixation
Occasional mechanical failures is a concern for transfemoral amputees using osseointegrated fixation. Understanding the true load applied on osseointegrated fixation is one important step in solving this problem. Conventionally, the load magnitude can be calculated based on the motion of the prosthesis and the ground reaction forces measured by a force plate using inverse dynamics. However, thi...
متن کاملStable fixation of an osseointegated implant system for above-the-knee amputees
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Rehabilitation of patients with transfemoral amputations is particularly difficult due to problems in using standard socket prostheses. We wanted to assess long-term fixation of the osseointegrated implant system (OPRA) using radiostereometric analysis (RSA) and periprosthetic bone remodeling. METHODS 51 patients with transfemoral amputations (55 implants) were enrolled...

Background and Aims: The All-on-4 design with its significant advantages is an appropriate model in reconstruction of edentulous mandible. Evaluation of stress and strain distribution in this model is necessary for better judgment. The purpose of this FEA study was to measure stress and strain distribution on peri-implant bone in All-on-4 design in edentulous mandible. Materials and Methods: Th...
متن کاملRadiographic Comparison of Crestal Bone Loss Around Two Implant Systems with Different Surface Roughness: A Retrospective Study
Background and Aim: This retrospective study aimed to investigate the effects of surface roughness and implant body design on the amount of crestal bone loss around implant. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, dental records of 87 patients who received 139 implants were evaluated. The ITI group received 63 implants with moderate roughness, while the DIO group received 76 implan...
متن کاملEnergy expenditure of transfemoral amputees during floor and treadmill walking with different speeds.
BACKGROUND Walking energy expenditure, calculated as the percent utilization of the maximal aerobic capacity, is little investigated in transfemoral amputees. OBJECTIVES Compare the energy expenditure of healthy participants (control participants) and transfemoral amputees walking with their respective preferred walking speeds on the treadmill (TPWS) and floor (FPWS). STUDY DESIGN Randomize...
