User-Oriented Evaluation of a Robotic Rollator That Provides Navigation Assistance in Frail Older Adults with and without Cognitive Impairment.
Gerontology
Nov 29, 2017
BACKGROUND: Navigational skills decline with age, and this decline is even more pronounced in cognitively impaired (CI) older adults. Navigation assistance is an emerging functionality of robotic rollators (RRs). The evidence on the effectiveness of ...
Development of an intelligent surgical training system for Thoracentesis.
Artificial intelligence in medicine
Nov 21, 2017
Surgical training improves patient care, helps to reduce surgical risks, increases surgeon's confidence, and thus enhances overall patient safety. Current surgical training systems are more focused on developing technical skills, e.g. dexterity, of t...
The effectiveness of robotic training depends on motor task characteristics.
Experimental brain research
Oct 5, 2017
Previous research suggests that the effectiveness of robotic training depends on the motor task to be learned. However, it is still an open question which specific task's characteristics influence the efficacy of error-modulating training strategies....
Quantitative Testing of fMRI-Compatibility of an Electrically Active Mechatronic Device for Robot-Assisted Sensorimotor Protocols.
IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
Aug 17, 2017
OBJECTIVE: To develop a quantitative set of methods for testing the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) compatibility of an electrically-active mechatronic device developed to support sensorimotor protocols during fMRI.
Developmental Approach for Behavior Learning Using Primitive Motion Skills.
International journal of neural systems
Aug 6, 2017
Imitation learning through self-exploration is essential in developing sensorimotor skills. Most developmental theories emphasize that social interactions, especially understanding of observed actions, could be first achieved through imitation, yet t...
Skill Learning and Skill Transfer Mediated by Cooperative Haptic Interaction.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
May 8, 2017
It is known that physical coupling between two subjects may be advantageous in joint tasks. However, little is known about how two people mutually exchange information to exploit the coupling. Therefore, we adopted a reversed, novel perspective to th...
Modeling and evaluation of hand-eye coordination of surgical robotic system on task performance.
The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
May 4, 2017
BACKGROUND: Robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery changes the direct hand and eye coordination in traditional surgery to indirect instrument and camera coordination, which affects the ergonomics, operation performance, and safety.
In-Situ Force Augmentation Improves Surface Contact and Force Control.
IEEE transactions on haptics
Apr 21, 2017
Surgeons routinely perform surgery with noisy, sub-threshold, or obscured visual and haptic feedback, either due to the necessary surgical approach, or because the systems on which they are operating are exceedingly delicate. Technological solutions ...
Automatic matching of surgeries to predict surgeons' next actions.
Artificial intelligence in medicine
Mar 24, 2017
OBJECTIVE: More than half a million surgeries are performed every day worldwide, which makes surgery one of the most important component of global health care. In this context, the objective of this paper is to introduce a new method for the predicti...
Training the Unimpaired Arm Improves the Motion of the Impaired Arm and the Sitting Balance in Chronic Stroke Survivors.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Dec 5, 2016
Robot-assisted rehabilitation of stroke survivors mainly focuses on the impaired side of the body while the role of the unimpaired side in the recovery after stroke is still controversial. The goal of this study is to investigate the influence on sit...
