Validation of a robot serious game assessment protocol for upper limb motor impairment in children with cerebral palsy.

NeuroRehabilitation
BACKGROUND: The ROBiGAME project aims to implement serious games on robots to rehabilitate upper limb (UL) motor function in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Serious game characteristics (target position, level of assistance/resistance, level of fo...

Development of a robotic upper limb assessment to configure a serious game.

NeuroRehabilitation
BACKGROUNDROBiGAME project aims to implement serious games on robots to rehabilitate upper limb (UL) in stroke patients. The serious game characteristics (target position, level of assistance/resistance, level of force) are adapted based on the patie...

Design and Feasibility Study of a Leg-exoskeleton Assistive Wheelchair Robot with Tests on Gluteus Medius Muscles.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The muscles of the lower limbs directly influence leg motion, therefore, lower limb muscle exercise is important for persons living with lower limb disabilities. This paper presents a medical assistive robot with leg exoskeletons for locomotion and l...

Using Machine Learning to Predict Lower-Extremity Injury in US Special Forces.

Medicine and science in sports and exercise
INTRODUCTION: Musculoskeletal injury rates in military personnel remain unacceptably high. Application of machine learning algorithms could be useful in multivariate models to predict injury in this population. The purpose of this study was to invest...

Short-term Effects of Robot-Resistance Exercises on Muscle Strength and Activations: Types of Muscle Contraction and Speed of Contraction.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
We developed the isokinetic exercise robot for single joint muscle training. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of contraction types (concentric vs. eccentric contractions) and contractile speeds (slow vs. fast contractions) con...

A robotic neck brace to characterize head-neck motion and muscle electromyography in subjects with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Annals of clinical and translational neurology
OBJECTIVE: This paper presents the first study where a dynamic neck brace was used to characterize the head motion of ALS patients while concurrently recording the surface electromyography (EMG) of the neck muscles.

Muscle endurance time estimation during isometric training using electromyogram and supervised learning.

Journal of electromyography and kinesiology : official journal of the International Society of Electrophysiological Kinesiology
UNLABELLED: Constant-force isometric muscle training is useful for increasing the maximal strength , rehabilitation and work-fatigue assessment. Earlier studies have shown that muscle fatigue characteristics can be used for evaluating muscle enduranc...

The impact of different training load quantification and modelling methodologies on performance predictions in elite swimmers.

European journal of sport science
The use of rolling averages to analyse training data has been debated recently. We evaluated two training load quantification methods (five-zone, seven-zone) fitted to performances over two race distances (50 and 100 m) using four separate longitudin...
