Humanoid robotics in health care: An exploration of children's and parents' emotional reactions.

Journal of health psychology
A new non-pharmacological method of distraction was tested with 57 children during their annual flu vaccination. Given children's growing enthusiasm for technological devices, a humanoid robot was programmed to interact with them while a nurse admini...

[Efficacy and reproducibility of a novel robotic-assisted system for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in bone tunnel drilling].

Zhonghua yi xue za zhi
To quantitatively evaluate the efficacy, precision, and reproducibility of the surgical navigation module of a novel robotic-assisted anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) system during bone tunnel drilling using models. Thirty 3D-print...

[Be alert to adverse events in the "post-learning curve" stage of robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty].

Zhonghua yi xue za zhi
More and more studies have confirmed that robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RATKA) can improve surgical accuracy and has a user-friendly learning curve. However, most current studies evaluating the learning curve use operative time as the sta...

Neural Associative Skill Memories for Safer Robotics and Modeling Human Sensorimotor Repertoires.

Neural computation
Modern robots face a challenge shared by biological systems: how to learn and adaptively express multiple sensorimotor skills. A key aspect of this is developing an internal model of expected sensorimotor experiences to detect and react to unexpected...

Evaluating Trunk Control Ability in Patients With Spinal Cord Injury via a Robotic Brace.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
Evaluating trunk control ability is significant in guiding patients towards proper functional training. Existing assessment techniques are subjective with low resolution, lack multi-dimensional assessment capability, or fail to provide active protect...

A Pilot Study on Fabric-Based Pneumatic Soft Gloves for Assisting Patients With Severe Brachial Plexus Injury.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Robotic gloves show promise in hand assistance due to their wearability and home-based potential, yet empirical research remains limited. This pilot study presents a fabric-based pneumatic soft glove, aiming to identify its potential and c...

Biomechanical analysis on neurotypical and autism spectrum disorder people during human-cobot interaction.

Applied ergonomics
Biomechanical analysis is essential for assessing subjects interacting with robotic setups and platforms. However, in industrial scenarios, workers' biomechanics are assessed mainly through questionnaires and scales which provide limited objectivity....

SeptalPro: Development and Usability Evaluation of a Force-Sensing Robotic Transseptal Puncture System for Cardiac Interventions.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to develop and evaluate the SeptalPro system, a novel robotic platform designed to enhance the precision, safety, and efficiency of transseptal puncture (TSP) procedures by integrating real-time remote control and force se...

An Active Insole to Reduce Plantar Pressure Loading: Using Predictive Finite Element Driven Soft Hydraulic Actuators to Minimize Plantar Pressure and the Pressure Time Integral for Diabetic Foot Ulceration Risk Management.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: This article aims to design, manufacture and evaluate an active insole to reduce plantar tissue loading to minimise the risk of diabetic foot ulceration for people living with diabetes.
