Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease, with the knee being the most commonly affected joint. It is usually found in elder population, affecting more than a third of the people aged over 65 years old. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the most sati ...
In orthopaedics, outcome evaluation is currently recognized as a major challenge to improve the knowledge both about injuries and treatments. For anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture, various evaluation tools are available for routine uses: clinical ex ...
The importance of evaluation of an orthopedic operation such as hip or knee arthroplasty has long been recognized. Many definitions of outcome and scoring questionnaires have been used in the past to assess the outcome of joint replacement. However, these ...
Today neuromuscular simulations are used in several fields, such as diagnostics and planing of surgery, to get a deeper understanding of the musculoskeletal system. During the last year, new models and datasets have been presented which can provide us with ...
The aim of this study was to develop an ambulatory system for the three-dimensional (3D) knee kinematics evaluation, which can be used outside a laboratory during long-term monitoring. In order to show the efficacy of this ambulatory system, knee function ...
In this work a 3D musculoskeletal model of the knee joint, that can simulate a squat movement, has been developed. Such a model would be useful to understand the biomechanics of the knee. The model consisted of all the the bones with their articular surfac ...
Probe (1) used during a total knee arthroplasty for measuring forces and locations of their points of application and thereby moments comprising A) two load sensitive plates (2 3) apt to be inserted in one joint-compartment of a knee joint each and each be ...
Ligament balancing in total knee arthroplasty may have an important influence on joint stability and prosthesis lifetime. In order to provide quantitative information and assistance during ligament balancing, a device that intraoperatively measures knee jo ...
Nowadays, the large majority of the instrumentation for orthopaedic surgery consists of mechanical tools with varying degrees of complexity. To increase the accuracy and the safety of orthopaedic interventions, sensors and computers were recently introduce ...
During natural locomotion, the stiffness of the human knee is modulated continuously and subconsciously according to the demands of activity and terrain. Given modern actuator technology, powered transfemoral prostheses could theoretically provide a simila ...
