The Best of Times at the Worst of Times: How Adults Respond to a Brief Intervention (RETURN) to Increase Planned Dental Visiting

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although acute health crises can disrupt routines and open a window for behaviour change, these teachable moments are rarely harnessed by intervention designs. The RETURN intervention (comprising a dental nurse‐led conversation, short peer videos and booklets supporting knowledge, skills and action‐planning) aimed to change planned dental ...

Patch Test Results With Dental Series: An 18‐Year Retrospective Study

Contact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
Patch testing with dental series is recommended for patients with oral symptoms and/or a history of allergic contact dermatitis ‐ particularly before dental procedures. Routine pre‐implantation patch testing should be considered only on an individual basis rather than as a standard practice.

TRIVIAL DENTAL: A Serious Board Game for Knowledge Consolidation in Dental Students Transitioning to Clinical Training

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The transition from preclinical education to clinical training represents a critical stage in dental curricula, requiring students to consolidate theoretical knowledge while preparing for clinical decision‐making. In this context, serious games have emerged as an innovative approach to promote active and collaborative learning ...

Designing Prosthetic Hands With Embodied Intelligence: The KIT Prosthetic Hands

Frontiers in Neurorobotics, 2022
Hand prostheses should provide functional replacements of lost hands. Yet current prosthetic hands often are not intuitive to control and easy to use by amputees. Commercially available prostheses are usually controlled based on EMG signals triggered by the user to perform grasping tasks.

Optimization of prosthetic hand manufacturing

2015 IEEE Global Humanitarian Technology Conference (GHTC), 2015
3D printing is a manufacturing method that holds much promise for customized prosthetic devices, particularly in developing countries. There are many open-source prosthetic hands designed specifically for the additive manufacturing process. However, the excessive time (i.e., 32–53 hours) required for printing and assembly hinders scale up. This article

Development of a Dexterous Prosthetic Hand

Journal of Computing and Information Science in Engineering, 2017
An anthropomorphic, under-actuated, prosthetic hand has been designed and developed for upper extremity amputees. This paper proposes a dexterity focused approach to the design of an anthropomorphic electromechanical hand for transradial amputees. Dexterity is increased by the improvement of thumb position, orientation, and work space.

A novel design of a prosthetic hand

2010 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, 2010
An innovative prosthetic hand prototype is presented in this paper. To increase the grasping stability, an underactuated finger is embedded in a traditional gripper. There are a total of three motors employed in the hand system: the gripper, the embedded finger, and the wrist.

Design of prosthetic hand simulator

2016 Medical Technologies National Congress (TIPTEKNO), 2016
In this study, Virtual Prosthetic Hand that controlled by single and dual channel sEMG (surface EMG) signals is presented. Virtual hand is designed by Blender 3D that is a powerful graphic modelling tool. Additionally, processing of raw EMG signal is explained with MATLAB.

A control philosophy for prosthetic hands

[1992] Proceedings Fifth Annual IEEE Symposium on Computer-Based Medical Systems, 2003
The majority of prosthetic hands available today make no pretense of approaching the versatility and functionality of the human hand. Available prostheses generally possess only one degree of freedom, which greatly reduces the manipulative ability of the device.
