Effect of two types of shoulder prosthesis on the muscle forces using a generic multibody model for different arm motions

BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2022
Background This study aims to analyze the effects of a novel dual-bearing shoulder prosthesis and a conventional reverse shoulder prosthesis on the deltoid and rotator cuff muscle forces for four different arm motions.

Adding a toe joint to a prosthesis: walking biomechanics, energetics, and preference of individuals with unilateral below-knee limb loss

Scientific Reports, 2021
Toe joints play an important functional role in able-bodied walking; however, for prosthesis users, the effect of adding a toe joint to a passive prosthetic foot remains largely unknown. The current study explores the kinematics, kinetics, rate of oxygen

Salvage Operation for a Failed Total Wrist Prosthesis and Darrach Procedure by Total Wrist Revision and Distal Radioulnar Joint Arthroplasty

Journal of Hand Surgery Global Online, 2020
An unstable distal ulnar stump after Darrach resection, alongside pathology of the radiocarpal joint, is difficult to manage without fusion of at least one joint. Currently, no standard 2-in-1 arthroplasty is available.

An investigation into a locking mechanism designed for a gear-based knee joint prosthesis

Cogent Engineering, 2020
Background: The knee-locking mechanism in an above-knee prosthesis is crucially important to protect the prosthesis user from sudden falling down due to unexpected disturbance while standing upright.

Effects of prosthetic design parameters on running performance of a unilateral transfemoral amputee

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2021
Carbon fiber running-specific prostheses (RSPs) are widely used among lower-limb amputee runners. However, which prosthesis provides the best performance for runners remains unknown.

Simulated joint and muscle forces in reversed and anatomic shoulder prostheses [PDF]

, 2008
Reversed shoulder prostheses are increasingly being used for the treatment of glenohumeral arthropathy associated with a deficient rotator cuff. These non-anatomical implants attempt to balance the joint forces by means of a semi-constrained articular ...

Development of the Transfemoral Prosthesis for Swimming Focused on Ankle Joint Motion

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2013
The objective of this study was to develop a prototype of transfemoral prosthesis for swimming focused on the ankle joint motion. This prosthesis has (i) an ankle joint which provides appropriate foot motion, (ii) the capability of walking on land by the
