Dexmedetomidine as a Ropivacaine Adjuvant in a Thoracic Paravertebral Block Combined With an Erector Spinae Plane Block for Improving Early Quality of Recovery After Transapical Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of dexmedetomidine (Dex) as an adjuvant for ropivacaine in a thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) combined with an erector spinae plane block (ESPB) for improving early quality of recovery and postoperative pain after transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).

Muscle Fatigue Analysis Using OpenSim

, 2017
In this research, attempts are made to conduct concrete muscle fatigue analysis of arbitrary motions on OpenSim, a digital human modeling platform. A plug-in is written on the base of a muscle fatigue model, which makes it possible to calculate the ...

Development of a Grasshopper‐Leg‐Inspired Back‐Type Exoskeleton for the Reduction of Muscle Activation During Stoop Activities

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farmers frequently suffer from musculoskeletal disorders, particularly lower back pain (LBP), mainly due to occupational ergonomic factors such as repetitive stooping and lifting. This study proposes using an exoskeleton to reduce LBP risk by providing external torque to the hip joints.

Structural changes of lumbar muscles in non-specific low back pain [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Lumbar muscle dysfunction due to pain might be related to altered lumbar muscle structure. Macroscopically, muscle degeneration in low back pain (LBP) is characterized by a decrease in cross-sectional area and an increase in fat infiltration ...

The Role of Surgical Techniques in Reducing Postoperative Pain in Abdominal Surgery: Evidence From the PROSPECT Systematic Reviews

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
The purpose of this review was to collate evidence from seven existing PROSPECT recommendations: (1) focusing on the impact of various surgical techniques as an important part of procedure‐specific postoperative pain management in abdominal surgery and (2) serving as a practical guidance for the acting surgeon.

Kinesio Taping Applied to Lumbar Muscles in Static Lumbar Flexion

Physical Treatments, 2015
Purpose: In approaching full trunk flexion (75%-80% of full flexion), myoelectric activity of lumbar erector spinae muscles is reduced or silenced; this response is known as flexion-relaxation phenomenon (FRP).
