Early Clinical Experiences for Dental Students Using Near Peer Assisted Learning (NPAL)

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction This paper describes Doctor of Dental Surgery students' perspectives on participating in NPAL sessions at the School of Dentistry at the University of Alberta. NPAL provides early clinical experiences (ECE) for junior students (mentees) assisted by senior students (mentors).

Biomechanical Design of an Anthropomorphic Prosthetic Hand

2018 7th IEEE International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics (Biorob), 2018
The anatomical structure of the hand and its parts; muscles, tendons, bones, and ligaments give the hand its dexterous capabilities in a very efficient way. Studying these structures is important for adapting anthropomorphic features in prosthetic devices.

Prosthetic hand

A prosthetic hand having a first radar module (5) attached the prosthetic hand at a wrist joint (2) of the prosthetic hand, wherein the first radar module is configured to receive a first radar signal reflected by a target object (7) and generate a first property signal based on the received first radar signal, and the prosthetic hand further comprises

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

Development of an Adaptive Prosthetic Hand

2019 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics (ROBIO), 2019
Inspired by biomechanics, an adaptive prosthetic hand which not only considered the function of the motion of the digits but also the palm, is presented in this paper. The human hand consists of different kinds of bones, the phalanges in the digits and the metacarpals in the palm, which cooperate to perform adaptable and dexterous motions.

A modular multisensory prosthetic hand

2014 IEEE International Conference on Information and Automation (ICIA), 2014
This paper presents a multi-DOF and multisensory prosthetic hand (HIT V prosthetic hand) with five modular fingers. The hand has a total of 11 joints, which are actuated by 6 intrinsic DC motors. Each digit (2 joints, DIP and MCP, coupled) is driven separately by a motor within the proximal phalange, while the trapeziometacarpal (TM) joint of the thumb
