Latest AI and machine learning research in sports medicine for healthcare professionals.
BACKGROUND: Trunk stabilization, which is a factor that directly affects the performance of affected upper-limb movements in stroke patients, is of critical importance in the performance of selective motor control.
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted therapy (RAT) and virtual reality (VR)-based neuromotor rehabilitation have shown promising evidence in terms of patient's neuromotor recovery, so far. However, still little is known on the perceived experience of use of robotic and VR devices and the related psychosocial impact. The present study outlines a study protocol aiming to investigate the biopsychosocial effect...
Computational models of emotions can not only improve the effectiveness and efficiency of human-robot interaction but also coordinate a robot to adapt...
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning describe a broad range of algorithm types that can be trained based on datasets to make predictions....
OBJECTIVE: Perilunate injuries are rare but devastating carpal injuries. The treatment of perilunate injuries remains challenging and contentious. Thi...
BACKGROUND: Aging degrades the balance and locomotion ability due to frailty and pathological conditions. This demands balance rehabilitation and assi...
This study aimed to determine whether the distance of gait training using a hybrid assistive limb (HAL) is related to the improvement of walking indep...
Chest pain is a common clinical complaint for which myocardial injury is the primary concern and is associated with significant morbidity and mortalit...
Intraoperative hemodynamics can affect postoperative kidney function. We aimed to investigate the effect of intraoperative mean arterial pressure (MAP...
The central nervous system (CNS) exploits anticipatory (APAs) and compensatory (CPAs) postural adjustments to maintain the balance. The postural adjus...
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) offers several advantages to patients including minimum blood loss and quick recovery time. However, lack of tactile ...
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with the aid of Navio Robot, comparing it with standa...
BACKGROUND: In the past decade, there has been substantial progress in the development of robotic controllers that specify how lower-limb exoskeletons...
BACKGROUND: Exoskeletons have become an important tool to help patients with upper extremity motor dysfunction in rehabilitation training and life ass...
Human-machine interfaces (HMI) refer to the physical interaction between a user and rehabilitation robots. A persisting excessive load leads to soft t...
BACKGROUND: Severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection may decrease respiratory and physical functions.
The application of human factors engineering for rehabilitation robots is based on a "human-centered" design philosophy that strives to provide safe a...
This study presents a model of cooperation between two planar manipulators including an orthosis and a programmable plate in form of a hybrid lower li...
Despite promising results in the rehabilitation field, it remains unclear whether upper limb robotic wearables, e.g., for people with physical impairm...
Seated postural limit defines the boundary of a region such that for any excursions made outside this boundary a subject cannot return the trunk to th...
