The physiological cost of restricted weight bearing
Injury, 2008To identify the energy cost of placing restrictions on weight bearing status.Measurement of the Physiological cost index (PCI) for 11 healthy volunteers carrying out three types of mobilisation over a 100 m course in a physiology laboratory: normal walking fully weight bearing (FWB); non-weight bearing (NWB) and feather touch weight bearing (FTWB). NWB

The purpose of this study was to compare the firmness of used mattress coil springs from the areas bearing greatest body weight versus areas subjected to little compression.Weight-bearing springs (WBS) extracted from the center of the mattresses (N = 32), and non-weight-bearing springs (NWBS) extracted from the head/foot were of the same mattresses.

Arthroplasty for weight-bearing shoulders
Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research, 2022Repeated transfers and wheelchair propulsion in patients with a neurological deficit of the lower limbs overloads the upper limbs mechanically, particularly the shoulders, which become weight-bearing. Under these conditions, arthroplasty implants are subjected to large stresses, even though this indication is controversial in such a context.
