  1. 1. The effect of different techniques on suspension in aesthetic finger prosthetics

    Kandidat-uppsats, Jönköping University/HHJ. Ortopedteknisk plattform

    Författare :Lucas van 't Ende; Marianne Andreasen; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Aesthetic finger prosthetics provide functional and cosmetic benefits. Good suspension of the prosthesis plays a role in the functional and aesthetic effects, and a loose fit can lead to rejection of the prosthetic. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The evidence base of elevated vacuum and pin-lock suspension system in transtibial prosthetic users: A literature review with a systematic approach

    Kandidat-uppsats, Jönköping University/HHJ. Ortopedteknisk plattform

    Författare :Louise Dömstedt; Malin Stafås; [2022]
    Nyckelord :transtibial prosthetics; transtibial suspension method; elevated vacuum; active vacuum; pin-lock;

    Sammanfattning : Aim: This review aims to describe the existing evidence base for using elevated vacuum suspension and pin-lock suspension systems in regards to fluctuations of limb volume, balance, effect on gait (spatial and temporal, kinematic, and kinetic data), and in-socket movement (pistoning and transverse forces). Background: There is a growing population with a TT amputation thus there is an increased demand for TT prosthetic solutions. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Developing and Testing the Usability of a Communication Tool to enhance Evidence into Practice - A qualitative pilot study

    Kandidat-uppsats, Jönköping University/HHJ. Ortopedteknisk plattform

    Författare :Rikke Rasmussen; Nikolaj E. Hansen; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Evidence-based practice; clinical reasoning; transfemoral prosthetic sockets; Prosthetist and orthotist; usability; Communication Tool.;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Meeting the prosthetists needs, and barriers is important to successful implement evidence into practice. Thus, several implementation methods have been initiated, the authors saw a need to create a Communication Tool based on evidence from transfemoral socket designs, to ease the process of assisting prosthetists in facilitating evidential reasoning.

  5. 4. A Methodology to Quantify Alignment of Transtibial and Transfemoral Prostheses using Optical Motion Capture System

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Författare :Þórey Ásgeirsdóttir; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Alignment; Lower limb amputees; Prosthesis; Motion Capture;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Lower limb amputees face many challenges, and most of them prefer to use prosthetics for daily tasks and activities. The prosthesis is usually a combination of connected prosthetic components, and their spatial orientation is called the prosthetic alignment. LÄS MER

  7. 5. EEG Signal Analysis in the Frequency Domain : An Examination of Abnormalities During the Gait Cycle

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Författare :Lou Gripentoft; Zilan Isik; [2022]
    Nyckelord :EEG; Frequency Domain; Signal Analysis; Fast Fourier transform; EEG; Frekvensdomän; Signalanalys; Snabb Fourier transform.;

    Sammanfattning : Many people experience discomfort during movement when using a knee prosthesis. As a result, a study is being conducted to see if biomedical models can be used to produce an optimal prosthetic socket to reduce discomfort. LÄS MER
