The Index of Difficulty as a tool for the evaluation of the agent’s motor difficulty

2022
In Industry 4.0 (I4.0), the role of the operator is essential to ensure the execution of working activities. Despite the implementation of the new I4.0 technologies, still motor activities require the execution of repetitive movements, such as in the pick and place or manipulations tasks.

The pelvic anatomic index is an independent predictor for the difficulty of radical prostatectomy

International Urology and Nephrology, 2022
The aim of the study was to investigate whether a novel simple measurement of pelvic anatomy, the pelvic anatomical index (PAI), which is obtained from simple physical examination, was predictive for potential difficulty and adverse outcome in radical prostatectomy.Available data from 73 consecutive radical prostatectomy patients were analyzed.

Predicting the difficulty of a lead extraction procedure

Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine, 2014
According to recent surveys, many sites performing permanent lead extractions do not meet the minimum prerequisites concerning personnel training, procedures' volume, or facility requirements. The current Heart Rhythm Society consensus on lead extractions suggests that patients should be referred to more experienced sites when a better outcome could be

Critical Index of Difficulty for Different Body Motions: A Review

Journal of Motor Behavior, 2015
K.-C. Gan and E. R. Hoffmann (1988) demonstrated that there is a clear boundary between values of Fitts' index of difficulty (ID) below which movements may be made without ongoing path corrections; above this value it was necessary to use corrections to hit a target of high ID.

Limb-Target Control Increases With Effective Index of Difficulty

Journal of Motor Behavior
Researchers have investigated the sensorimotor mechanisms that result in Fitts' law. One approach has been to analyse movement trajectories during Fitts' tasks to reveal the processes that occur during movement preparation and execution. We used trajectory analysis in the current study to investigate how limb-target control contributed to Fitts' law ...
