1. 1. Lower Limb Amputation in Patients with Vascular Disease

   Författare :Anton Johannesson; Lund Ortopedi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; rehabilitation outcome; prosthetic; mortality; amputation; Incidence; limb;

   Sammanfattning : The current prevalence of persons amputated at transmetatarsal level or higher in Sweden can be estimated to be between 5000 and 5500 persons (approx. 0.06 % of the population). The majority of these are patients with vascular disease (≈ 80%). LÄS MER

3. 2. Functioning in prosthetic users provided with and without a microprocessor-controlled prosthetic knee – relative effects on mobility, self-efficacy and attentional demand

   Författare :Saffran Möller; Nerrolyn Ramstrand; Kerstin Hagberg; David Rusaw; Catharina Sjödahl Hammarlund; Jönköping University; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; amputation; trans-femoral amputation; adaptive prosthetic knee; prosthetic limb; self-report; mobility; self-efficacy; attention; brain; gait; neuroimaging; functional near-infrared spectroscopy; cognitive load; brain activity;

   Sammanfattning : Background: To undergo a lower limb amputation is a traumatic experience affecting the individual on physical as well as psychological levels and often leading to limitations in a person´s daily life. Following an amputation individual often receive a prosthesis to address impairments in mobility and functioning. LÄS MER

4. 3. 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

5. 4. 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

7. 5. 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; []
