PurposeThe study aims were to assess the kinematic data, Internal-External (IE) rotation, and Antero-Posterior (AP) translation of the contact points between the femoral condyles and polyethylene insert and to develop a combined dynamic RSA-FE (Radiostereometric – Finite Element) model that gives results congruent with the literature.MethodsA cohor...

BackgroundThe Opti_Knee system, a marker-based motion capture system, tracks and analyzes the 6 degrees of freedom (6DOF) motion of the knee joint. However, the validation of the accuracy of this gait system had not been previously reported. The objective of this study was to validate and the system. Two healthy subjects were recruited for the stud...

This paper is devoted to the theoretical modeling of the mechanical response of bonded structures and particularly focuses on the single-lap joint which corresponds to the simplest and most fundamental bonding configuration. Such a geometry brings into play all the features of any bonded assembly in terms of mechanical response (stress/strain heter...

BackgroundKinematic analysis of the 3D reach-to-grasp drinking task is recommended in stroke rehabilitation research. The number of trials required to reach performance stability, as an important aspect of reliability, has not been investigated for this task. Thus, the aims of this study were to determine the number of trials needed for the drinkin...

Kinematika je veja mehanike, ki se ukvarja z gibanjem telesa ali sistema, pri čemer ne analizira vzrokov za nastanek gibanja. Sistemom, ki jih preučuje kinematika, pravimo mehanizmi. Sem spada tudi ročični mehanizem, ki je eden najpogostejših pretvornikov gibanja, hkrati pa je tudi odličen primer za razlago kinematičnih veličin. V ta namen smo izde...

Surgical endoscopy
Current evaluation methods for robotic-assisted surgery (ARCS or GEARS) are limited to 5-point Likert scales which are inherently time-consuming and require a degree of subjective scoring. In this study, we demonstrate a method to break down complex robotic surgical procedures using a combination of an objective cumulative sum (CUSUM) analysis and ...

BackgroundSepsis is a severe illness that affects millions of people worldwide, and its early detection is critical for effective treatment outcomes. In recent years, researchers have used models to classify positive patients or identify the probability for sepsis using vital signs and other time-series variables as input.MethodsIn our study, we an...

BackgroundHemiparesis following stroke is often accompanied by spasticity. Spasticity is one factor among the multiple components of the upper motor neuron syndrome that contributes to movement impairment. However, the specific contribution of spasticity is difficult to isolate and quantify. We propose a new method of quantification and evaluation ...

Gait & posture
Arm movements make a substantial and functionally relevant contribution to quiet standing and dynamic balance tasks. The impact of restricted arm movements on balance control is particularly important for children as their postural control system is not fully matured. This study investigated the effects of arm movements on lower body joint kinemati...
