Posture prediction for static sagittal-plane lifting

Journal of Biomechanics, 1996
Three separate models are presented to predict the postures of humans performing static sagittal lifting tasks. The models use a common inverse-kinematics characterization to represent mathematically feasible postures, but explore different criteria functions for selecting a final posture.

Sagittal plane biomechanics. American Diabetes Association

Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 2000
During walking, the center of body mass must pass from behind the weightbearing foot to in front of it. For this to take place, the foot must function as a sagittal plane pivot. Because the range required for this motion is approximately five times as great as both frontal and transverse plane motion, its evaluation should become an essential part of a

Surgical Technique: Sagittal Plane Correction

2020
Stability of the knee is controlled by both soft tissue and bony elements, which are responsible for the overall balance of the joint on both coronal and sagittal plane. The main actors in the control of sagittal stability of the knee are anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), posteromedial and posterolateral structures ...

Sagittal Plane Deformity in the Adult Patient

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2009
Recent studies have demonstrated that sagittal balance is the most important and reliable radiographic predictor of clinical health status in the adult with a spinal deformity. Affected persons typically present with intractable pain, early fatigue, and a perception of being off-balance.

Morphological segmentation for sagittal plane image analysis

2010 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology, 2010
This paper introduces a morphological image segmentation method by applying watershed transform with markers to scale-space smoothed images and furthermore provides images for clinical monitoring and analysis of patients. The database comprises sagittal plane images taken from a digital camera of patients submitted to Global Postural Reeducation (GPR ...

Measurement of Cervical Posture in the Sagittal Plane

Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, 2008
This article provides a historical perspective and an overview of different ways of measuring sagittal plane cervical posture in clinical and research settings.Measures of cervical posture are considered, in terms of their purpose, their reliability and validity, and their capacity to provide knowledge about cervical posture.Despite technological ...

Sagittal Plane Deformities

2002
The concept of malalignment in the frontal plane has significance different from that of malalignment in the sagittal plane. The knee does not have functional range of motion in the frontal plane. Therefore, there is no compensatory knee range of motion for MAD. Because the knee moves in the sagittal plane, the sagittal plane alignment of the hip, knee,

Sagittal plane deformity: Evaluation and management

Seminars in Spine Surgery, 2017
Abstract Sagittal alignment is a critical component of the evaluation and management of adult spinal deformities. Loss of sagittal alignment may be the result of iatrogenic-induced deformity, metabolic bone problems, progression of idiopathic or neuromuscular deformities, posttraumatic, or de novo.

Sagittal Plane Knee Considerations

2002
Because the knee has no significant abduction or adduc-tion movement, joint contracture or compensatory joint movement in the frontal plane need not be considered. Considerations of ligament laxity and intraarticular deficiency, which cause some knee motion in the frontal plane, are discussed in Chaps. 14 and Chaps. 15.
