Constrained Registration of the Wrist Joint [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 2009 Comparing wrist shapes of different individuals requires alignment of these wrists into the same pose. Unconstrained registration of the carpal bones results in anatomically nonfeasible wrists. In this paper, we propose to constrain the registration using the shapes of adjacent bones, by keeping the width of the gap between adjacent bones constant. The

Do wrist orthoses cause compensatory elbow and shoulder movements when performing drinking and hammering tasks? [PDF]
Irish Journal of Occupational Therapy, 2017 Purpose - Wrist orthoses are used by occupational therapists to decrease pain, support weak muscles and protect tissues during healing. However, use of wrist orthoses has been observed to produce compensatory movements in other upper extremity joints ...

Validation of grip strength as a measure of frailty in rheumatoid arthritis
Scientific Reports, 2022 Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients often exhibit finger/wrist joint symptoms and reduced grip strength. This study aimed to validate grip strength as a measure of frailty in RA patients. Subjects were 424 female RA patients (mean age ± standard deviation,

Verification of the rehabilitation effect for wrist contracture by dynamic analysis of carpals
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015 Distal radius bone fracture is major disease for elderly people. As its cure needs fixing the wrist for long time, the wrist often stiffens up and the range of its motion tends to be restricted, which is generally called “contracture”. As the contracture

Life, 2022 The human wrist joint is an elegant mechanism. The wrist allows the positioning and orienting of the hand to the forearm. The computational modeling of the human hand, especially of the wrist joint, can reveal important information about biomechanical ...
