A pilot study: development of bonepreserving- biomimetic artificial femoral head cover

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2020
Patients with hip arthrosis are increasing each year where total hip replacement is an effective solution when other non-invasive or surgical methods are no longer an effective solution.

Severe osteolysis and periprosthetic femoral fracture 45 years after acrylic hemiarthroplasty of the hip: a case report

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Hip arthroplasty using acrylic prosthesis was once conducted; however, it has now been abandoned because of early breakages and wear of material.

A Comprehensive Review of Myoelectric Prosthesis Control [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Prosthetic hands can be used to support upper-body amputees. Myoelectric prosthesis, one of the externally-powered active prosthesis categories, requires proper processing units in addition to recording electrodes and instrumentation amplifiers. In this paper, the following myoelectric prosthesis control methods were discussed in detail: On-off and ...

External femoral rotation of 2 degrees is associated with the lowest stuffing rates around the femur in functionally aligned TKA

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Modifying femoral morphology after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) poses a potential risk for ligament‐imbalances and patella mal‐tracking. The purpose of this study was primarily to quantify TKA‐induced stuffing around the femur and secondarily assess the effect of femoral rotation (FR) on trochlear and condylar anatomy‐changes ...

No difference in 5‐year survivorship between cemented versus cementless total knee arthroplasty in a cohort of 5266 patients using a deep‐dish mobile bearing implant

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The best fixation method for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remains controversial. The aim of this study is to compare the effect of cemented and cementless fixation on prosthesis survivorship. Our primary hypothesis is that there is no difference in survivorship between cemented and cementless TKA.

Successful treatment of periprosthetic joint infection caused by Granulicatella para-adiacens with prosthesis retention: a case report. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Granulicatella and Abiotrophia spp. are difficult to detect due to their complex nutritional requirements. Infections with these organisms are associated with high treatment failure rates.

Virtual and Augmented Reality-Based Assistive Interfaces for Upper-limb Prosthesis Control and Rehabilitation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Functional upper-limb prosthetic training can improve users performance in controlling prostheses and has been incorporated into occupational therapy for individuals in need. In recent years, virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies have been shown to be promising avenues to improve the convenience of rehabilitative prosthesis ...

The projected economic burden and complications of revision hip and knee arthroplasties: Insights from national registry studies

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract The rising volume of primary hip and knee arthroplasties has led to a parallel increase in revision surgeries, creating significant clinical and economic challenges for healthcare systems worldwide. This study synthesizes national arthroplasty registry data to evaluate trends in revision aetiology, associated costs and regional disparities ...

Towards a working methodology for using total hip and knee joint replacements to support identification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Hip and knee prostheses have occasionally been used to support identification of unknown persons along with other medical devices and implants. This paper looks at the specific issues around using hip and knee implants, suggesting a working methodology ...

MOBILE and the provision of total joint replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Modern joint replacements have been available for 45 years, but we still do not have clear indications for these interventions, and we do not know how to optimize the outcome for patients who agree to have them done.
