Measurement Properties of the Smartphone-Based B-B Score in Current Shoulder Pathologies
Kamiar Aminian, Alain Farron, Cyntia Duc
This study is aimed at the determination of the measurement properties of the shoulder function B-B Score measured with a smartphone. This score measures the symmetry between sides of a power-related metric for two selected movements, with 100% representin ...
2015Enhancing clinically-relevant shoulder function assessment using only essential movements
Kamiar Aminian, Alain Farron, Brigitte Jolles-Haeberli, Cyntia Duc
Kinematic functional evaluation with body-worn sensors provides discriminative and responsive scores after shoulder surgery, but the optimal movements' combination has not yet been scientifically investigated. The aim of this study was the development of a ...
Institute of Physics2015Effect of Patient Specific Parameters on Degenerative Shoulder Diseases
Osteoarthritis and rotator cuff tears are two common and wide spread shoulder diseases leading to significant restrictions in the daily life of the affected. The pathogenesis is not fully understood yet. A chronic process triggered by multiple causes is as ...
EPFL2015Improving anterior deltoid activity in a musculoskeletal shoulder model – an analysis of the torque-feasible space at the sternoclavicular joint
Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Christoph Anselm Engelhardt, David Ingram
Modelling the shoulder's musculature is challenging given its mechanical and geometric complexity. The use of the ideal fibre model to represent a muscle's line of action cannot always faithfully represent the mechanical effect of each muscle, leading to c ...
Taylor & Francis2015Comparison of Muscle Coordination in Two Patient Specific Shoulder Models
The shoulder provides mobility to the upper limb and is thus necessary for lots of activities. Consequently injuries in the shoulder joint affect the patient in his daily life. The study of shoulder pathologies is however difficult : each patient has his i ...
2015Evaluation of the muscular activity duration in shoulders with rotator cuff tear using inertial sensors and electromyography
Kamiar Aminian, Alain Farron, Cyntia Duc
Shoulder disorders, including rotator cuff tears, affect the shoulder function and result in adapted muscle activation. Although these adaptations have been studied in controlled conditions, free-living activities have not been investigated. Based on the k ...
Institute of Physics2014A wearable inertial system to assess the cervical spine mobility: comparison with an optoelectronic-based motion capture evaluation
In clinical settings, the cervical range of motion (ROM) is commonly used to assess cervical spine function. This study aimed at assessing cervical spine mobility based on head and thorax kinematics measured with a wearable inertial system (WS). Sequences ...
Elsevier2014Distribution of arm velocity and frequency of arm usage during daily activity: objective outcome evaluation after shoulder surgery
Kamiar Aminian, Alain Farron, Brigitte Jolles-Haeberli, Cyntia Duc
In clinical settings, functional evaluation of shoulder movement is primarily based on what the patient thinks he/she is able to do rather than what he/she is actually performing. We proposed a new approach for shoulder assessment based on inertial sensors ...
Elsevier2013Importance of the subscapularis muscle after total shoulder arthroplasty
Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Valérie Hélène Emilie Malfroy Camine, Xabier Larrea
Background: The rotator cuff muscles are the main stabilizer of the glenohumeral joint. After total shoulder arthroplasty using anterior approaches, a dysfunction of the subscapularis muscle has been reported. In the present paper we tested the hypothesis ...
Elsevier Sci Ltd2013A Minimal Set of Coordinates for Describing Humanoid Shoulder Motion
Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Christoph Anselm Engelhardt, David Ingram
The kinematics of the anatomical shoulder are analysed and modelled as a parallel mechanism similar to a Stewart platform. A new method is proposed to describe the shoulder kinematics with minimal coordinates and solve the indeterminacy. The minimal coordi ...
