Design and In Vitro Validation of an Orthopaedic Drill Guide for Femoral Stem Revision in Total Hip Arthroplasty
Design and In Vitro Validation of an Orthopaedic Drill Guide for Femoral Stem Revision in Total Hip Arthroplasty 1978 2560 IEEE Journal of Translational Engineering in Health and Medicine (JTEHM)
Objective: Cemented total hip arthroplasty (THA) demonstrates superior survival rates compared to uncemented procedures. Nevertheless, most younger patients opt for uncemented THA, as removing well-fixed bone cement in the femur… read more

EMG Pattern Recognition Control of the DEKA Arm: Impact on User Ratings of Satisfaction and Usability
Author(s)3: Linda Resnik, Frantzy Acluche, Matt Borgia, Gail A. Latlief, Sam Phillips
EMG Pattern Recognition Control of the DEKA Arm: Impact on User Ratings of Satisfaction and Usability 780 435 IEEE Journal of Translational Engineering in Health and Medicine (JTEHM)

     Abstract The DEKA Arm has multiple degrees of freedom which historically have been operated primarily by inertial measurement units (IMUs). However, the IMUs are not appropriate for all potential…

A Comparison of Pattern Recognition Control and Direct Control of a Multiple Degree-of-Freedom Transradial Prosthesis
Author(s)3: Todd A. Kuiken, Laura A. Miller, Kristi Turner, Levi Hargrove
A Comparison of Pattern Recognition Control and Direct Control of a Multiple Degree-of-Freedom Transradial Prosthesis 780 435 IEEE Journal of Translational Engineering in Health and Medicine (JTEHM)

With existing conventional prosthesis control (direct control), individuals with a transradial amputation use two opposing muscle groups to control each prosthesis motor. As component complexity increases, subjects must switch the…
