  1. 1. Myoelectric Control for Hand Prostheses

    Författare :Fredrik Sebelius; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mät- och instrumenteringsteknik; Care and help to handicapped; Handikappade; vård och rehabilitering; Instrumentation technology; Virtual; Recognition; Real time; On-line learning; Myoelectric; Hand prosthesis; EMG; ANN; Artificial hands;

    Sammanfattning : An investigation of improvements of myoelectric prostheses has been undertaken. The primary aims of this thesis were (1) to generate an accurate prediction of as many hand movement as possible, (2) to produce a training setup for subjects allowing intuitive and instant control over multiple movements, and (3) to reduce the training cycle for the control system to a maximum of a couple of minutes to enable optimizations, e.

  3. 2. The Assessment of Capacity for Myoelectric Control : Psychometric evidence and comparison with upper limb prosthetic outcome measures

    Författare :Helen Lindner; Liselotte Hermansson; Ann-Christin Eliasson; Ann Langius Eklöf; Helena Burger; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; capacity; comparison; icf; myoelectric control; psychometric evidence; upper limb prosthesis;

    Sammanfattning : Evaluation of outcomes using validated prosthetic outcome measures (OMs) is a current priority in upper limb (UL) prosthetics, and OMs with psychometric evidence toward UL prosthesis users are thus necessary. The “Assessment of Capacity for Myoelectric Control” (ACMC) is a tool that assesses the ability to control a myoelectric prosthetic hand. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Upper limb reduction deficiencies in Swedish children : classification, prevalence and function with myoelectric prostheses

    Författare :Liselotte M. N. Hermansson; Ann-Christine Eliasson; Ann Nachemson; Karolinska institutet Institutionen för kvinnors och barns hälsa; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; children; upper limb; deficiency; register validation; scoliosis; arm prosthesis; measurement; occupational therapy; psychopathology; depression; Medicine; Medicin; Children; upper limb; deficiency; register validation; scoliosis; arm prosthesis; measurement; occupational therapy; psychopathology; depression;

    Sammanfattning : Upper limb reduction deficiency (ULRD) is a rare condition that has been known ever since the 6th century B.C. This is a lifelong deficiency which in an afflicted child can lead to practical limitations, social restrictions and physical problems. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Healthcare interventions in children with congenital limb reduction deficiency : long term outcomes and experiences of decisions made during childhood

    Författare :Lis Sjöberg; Liselotte Hermansson; Carin Fredriksson; Helen Lindner; Mats Granlund; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Childhood; daily occupation; decision-making; family-centered service; life situation; limb deficiency; myoelectric prosthesis; parental role; rehabilitation; surgery;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to describe experiences and long-term outcomes of healthcare interventions for children with congenital limb reduction deficiency (CLRD). The four studies included were conducted with descriptive designs. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Benefits and use of myoelectric arm prostheses : outcomes, influencing factors and experiences

    Författare :Cathrine Widehammar; Liselotte Hermansson; Kajsa Lidström-Holmqvist; Ingvor Pettersson; Kristin Østlie; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; upper limb; amputation; artificial limbs; rehabilitation; occupational therapy; environment; qualitative methods;

    Sammanfattning : People with acquired upper limb loss or congenital limb reduction deficiency are often offered a myoelectric prosthesis to compensate for the missing hand. A common problem is the non-use of prostheses, and lack of training has been suggested as a reason for this. LÄS MER
