Optimization of Semiautomated Calibration Algorithm of Multichannel Electrotactile Feedback for Myoelectric Hand Prosthesis [PDF]

, 2019
The main drawback of the commercially available myoelectric hand prostheses is the absence of somatosensory feedback. We recently developed a feedback interface for multiple degrees of freedom myoelectric prosthesis that allows proprioceptive and sensory

When rehabilitation is not enough, how targeting metabolism can overcome the limited plasticity of skeletal muscle after traumatic injury

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 1718-1732, 1 April 2026.
Abstract There is a category of large‐scale neuromusculoskeletal injuries that result in long‐term functional disabilities, and one such injury is volumetric muscle loss (VML) injury. In addition to the clinical outcomes related to long‐term dysfunction, co‐morbidities and reduced mobility and physical activity, this review addresses several ...

Within-socket Myoelectric Prediction of Continuous Ankle Kinematics for Control of a Powered Transtibial Prosthesis [PDF]

, 2014
Objective. Powered robotic prostheses create a need for natural-feeling user interfaces and robust control schemes. Here, we examined the ability of a nonlinear autoregressive model to continuously map the kinematics of a transtibial prosthesis and ...

The Locomotor Capabilities Index; validity and reliability of the Swedish version in adults with lower limb amputation

Health and Quality of Life Outcomes, 2009
Background The Locomotor Capabilities Index (LCI) is a validated measure of lower-limb amputees' ability to perform activities with prosthesis. We have developed the LCI Swedish version and evaluated its validity and reliability.

Fluorapatite‐Coated Percutaneous Osseointegrated Prostheses Limit Epidermal Downgrowth and Promote Periprosthetic Healing in a Weight‐Bearing Sheep Model—A Preliminary Study

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 44, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous osseointegrated (OI) devices offer an advanced alternative to socket prosthetic suspension systems for amputees but can face clinical limitations due to complications at the skin‐implant interface. Titanium (Ti) and its alloys, though mechanically suitable and promoting osseointegration, are unable to support epidermal cell ...
