Prototyping and Experimental Analysis of Active Offloading Footwear for Patients With Diabetes Using an Array of Magnetorheological Fluid–Based Modules
Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Paolo Germano, Bhawnath Tiwari
Diabetic foot ulceration is a serious challenge worldwide which imposes an immense risk of lower extremity amputation and in many cases may lead to the death. The presented work focuses on the offloading requirements using an active approach and considers ...
2024A Tunable Self-Offloading Module for Plantar Pressure Regulation in Diabetic Patients
Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Paolo Germano, Christian Köchli, Sofia Lydia Ntella, Kenny Jeanmonod, Bhawnath Tiwari
Plantar pressure plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of foot ulcers among patients with diabetes and peripheral polyneuropathy. Pressure relief is a key requirement for both the prevention and treatment of plantar ulcers. Conventional medical practice ...
2024Modeling and analysis of miniaturized magnetorheological valve for fluidic actuation
Fluidic actuation enables movement in a wide range of mechanical systems, from simple laboratory devices to more complex industrial machinery. Fluids are used to generate motion of mechanical pieces. The term "fluids" encompasses two types of technologies: ...
EPFL2023Pressure Offloading Device for Diabetic Footwear Based on Magnetorheological Fluids
Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Christian Köchli, Sofia Lydia Ntella, Kenny Jeanmonod
Diabetes is a rapidly growing disease, with important complications that decrease the quality of life of patients. Diabetic Foot Ulceration is a major complication of diabetes and can lead to gangrene and amputation. It is related to high pressure develope ...
IEEE2022Low-Intensity Electrostimulation Enhances Neuroregeneration and Improves Erectile Function in a Rat Model of Cavernous Nerve Injury
Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Mikaël Nils Sturny
Background: Neurogenic erectile dysfunction (ED) following radical prostatectomy (RP) is a frequent complication often leading to erectile tissue remodeling and permanent ED. Low-intensity electrostimulation (LIES) has been shown to enhance peripheral nerv ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2022Smart algorithm for plantar pressure classification and redistribution in wearable device based on machine learning techniques
This document presents the choice and the optimization of a supervised classification algorithm, applied on plantar pressure measurements. Its purpose is to classify, based on pressure data coming from a smart insole, whether the user has risks of foot ulc ...
2021The integrated stress response contributes to tRNA synthetase-associated peripheral neuropathy
Dominant mutations in ubiquitously expressed transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetase genes cause axonal peripheral neuropathy, accounting for at least six forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease. Genetic evidence in mouse and Drosophila models suggests a gain-of ...
