Book Biomechanics of Lower Limb Prosthetics

Download or read book Biomechanics of Lower Limb Prosthetics written by Mark R. Pitkin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-10-14 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreword from a Clinical Biomechanist, Applied Physiologist and Prosthetist teaching graduate students in Prosthetics & Orthotics. While there are many books on Biomechanics, arguably the quintessential science of limb prosthetics, none addresses the fundamental principles in sufficient detail and depth to be practically useful to the prosthetist, rehabilitation specialist or researcher. Dr. Pitkin’s monograph is an exemplary collection of theoretical principles from his research and o- ers, presented in its clinical and applied biomechanics form. The textbook provides an excellent overview of the many facets of lower limb prosthetic design and engineering for the ardent clinician researcher and student. The book delves into many of the basic concepts that are required knowledge for the clinician and the scientist to have as the foundation for their work. Dr. Pitkin has an e- quent manner in which he reflects on the history and literature to tell the storied evolution of prosthetic design . He takes the reader on a journey to consider his theories, which have substantive foundations to contemplate. By the end of chapter one, we have the basic h- tory and an appreciation for the rationale behind the “rolling joint ankle” with evidence to support his theoretical views.

Download or read book Full Stride written by Victoria Tepe and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking title begins with an introductory overview of the Lower Extremity Gait Systems (LEGS) project, identifying concerns and observations as context for the reader to consider topics and challenges detailed in later chapters. Next are chapters that explore relevant military and civilian needs, and an essential historical context of the capabilities and limitations of contemporary prosthetics. The section concludes with an overview of essential components used in passive and active lower limb prosthetics, including sockets, foot, ankle, and knee systems, as well as emerging bionic systems. A second section considers research and development in orthotics, synthetic and biological materials, volitional control, and wearable robotics (also known as exoskeletons). Finally, expert authors explore advanced science and emerging medical perspectives in research related to limb salvage, osseointegration, limb transplantation, and tissue engineering. Designed for medical practitioners, engineers, students, and researchers who use or develop prosthetic technology for civilian or military amputees, Full Stride: Advancing the State of the Art in Lower Extremity Gait Systems will be of great interest to trauma specialists, orthopedists, rehabilitation specialists, nursing staff and physical therapists, as well as researchers and scientists who specialize in fields that shape and inform advanced prosthetic device development such as materials sciences, engineering (electrical, mechanical, biomedical), robotics, and human physiology.

Book Active Above Knee Prosthesis

Download or read book Active Above Knee Prosthesis written by Zlata Jelacic and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Active Above-Knee Prosthesis: A Guide to a Smart Prosthetic Leg presents original research and development results, providing a firsthand overview of idea generation and prototype production. The book gives insights into the problem of stair ascent for people with above-knee amputation and offers a solution in the form of a physical prototype of an active above-knee prosthesis with an actuated ankle. The book's authors have developed and tested a physical prototype of an active above-knee prosthesis, giving anyone who is researching and designing prosthetic devices firsthand knowledge on how to build on, and continue with, work that has already been done. - Presents state-of-the-art technology in powered prosthetics - Helps readers evaluate design options and create new developments - Provides guidance on the evolution of advanced prosthetic design

Book Prosthetic Restoration and Rehabilitation of the Upper and Lower Extremity

Download or read book Prosthetic Restoration and Rehabilitation of the Upper and Lower Extremity written by Alicia J. Davis, MPA, CPO, FAAOP and published by Demos Medical Publishing. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prosthetic Restoration and Rehabilitation of the Upper and Lower Extremity is a well-illustrated, state-of-the-art reference on the science and practice of post-amputation care, prosthetic restoration, and functional rehabilitation, designed to maximize patient independence and quality of life. Chapters are written by physiatrists, prosthetists, surgeons, and therapists at the University of Michigan, clinicians and teachers who work with amputees on a daily basis. Clinically oriented, it covers both lower and upper extremity restoration and rehabilitation and serves as a handy reference for busy practitioners to support sound clinical decision-making. Beginning with basic anatomy, kinesiology, and a recap of surgical decisions principles and post-operative care for amputees, the book discusses biomechanics, clinical assessment, prosthetic options, how to write a complete and detailed prescription for the prosthesis, restoration and management of specific problems by region, and rehabilitation programs and strategies. Common medical issues such as phantom limb sensation and pain, skin problems, and sexual and psychological considerations are discussed as well. In-depth coverage of prosthetic restoration is provided for special populations such as infants, children, the elderly, athletes multi-extremity amputees, and those who have lost limbs to cancer. Chapters are written in expanded outline format for ease of use and feature numerous full-color diagrams, photos, and other illustrations. This text will guide physicians, trainees, and other members of the care team through the fundamentals of restoring function to individuals who have lost limbs or body parts. Key Features: Provides a state-of-the-art, accessible, clinical approach to post-amputation care, prosthetic restoration, and functional rehabilitation Covers both upper and lower extremities Addresses prostheses for special populations and sports and recreation Includes boxed clinical pearls at the start of each chapter, illustrated quick reference tables, and full-color photos throughout Supports clinical decision making and addresses practical questions and problems Advises on new requirements for Medicare and Medicaid patients, and includes patient education materials and sample prescription forms that can be customized for use in any clinic Outlines important information for returning to the community after amputation
