A PRELIMINARY COST-UTILITY ANALYSIS OF THE PROSTHETIC CARE INNOVATIONS: BASIC FRAMEWORK

open access: yesCanadian Prosthetics & Orthotics Journal, 2021
A preliminary cost-utility analysis (CUA) of prosthetic care innovations can provide timely information during the early stage of product development and clinical usage. Concepts of preliminary CUAs are emerging.

Exploiting Intrinsic Kinematic Null Space for Supernumerary Robotic Limbs Control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Supernumerary robotic limbs (SRLs) gained increasing interest in the last years for their applicability as healthcare and assistive technologies. These devices can either support or augment human sensorimotor capabilities, allowing users to complete tasks that are more complex than those feasible for their natural limbs.

Highly integrated bionic prostheses resolve the thermal asymmetry between residual amputated and contralateral limbs

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Residual limbs after amputation present colder temperatures than unaffected contralateral limbs. This temperature asymmetry has been attributed to autonomic and cognitive factors, such as changes in body representation.

INVESTIGATION OF LOCALIZED SKIN TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION ACROSS THE TRANSTIBIAL RESIDUAL LIMB

open access: yesCanadian Prosthetics & Orthotics Journal, 2021
BACKGROUND: Interventions to resolve thermal discomfort as a common complaint in amputees are usually chosen based on the residual limb skin temperature while wearing prosthesis; whereas, less attention has been paid to residual limb skin temperature ...

Continuous Gesture Recognition from sEMG Sensor Data with Recurrent Neural Networks and Adversarial Domain Adaptation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Movement control of artificial limbs has made big advances in recent years. New sensor and control technology enhanced the functionality and usefulness of artificial limbs to the point that complex movements, such as grasping, can be performed to a limited extent. To date, the most successful results were achieved by applying recurrent neural networks (

Solvitur Ambulando. A brief history of production and use of artificial limbs [PDF]

open access: yesActa Medico-Historica Rigensia, 2010
"I’ve done it! Have just come in from a 10-mile walk! The best I’ve done yet. Time 2 hrs 40 mins – not racing time, I am afraid, but I hope to improve on it. My Hanger is doing very good service.
