A Novel Technique of Arthroscopic-Assisted Four-Corner Fusion and Robot-Assisted Fixation for Scaphoid Nonunion Advanced Collapse Wrist: A Single Case Study.

Orthopaedic surgery
OBJECTIVE: Scaphoid nonunion advanced collapse (SNAC) is a relatively common and debilitating wrist disorder yet its treatment remains challenging and controversial. We aim to describe a novel technique of a dual arthroscopic and robotic assisted fou...

Analysis of learning the bimanual control of (tele)operating joint space controlled robotic arms with 4 degrees of freedom using the two-timescales power law of learning.

Ergonomics
Training costs for operators of robotic arms in forestry and construction are high. A systematic analysis of skill development can help to make training more efficient. This research focuses on motor skill development by investigating the bimanual co...

Automatic Detection of Perilunate and Lunate Dislocations on Wrist Radiographs Using Deep Learning.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery
Delayed or missed diagnosis of perilunate or lunate dislocations can lead to significant morbidity. Advances in computer vision provide an opportunity to improve diagnostic performance. In this study, a deep learning algorithm was used for detection ...

Wrist-Based Electrodermal Activity Monitoring for Stress Detection Using Federated Learning.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
With the most recent developments in wearable technology, the possibility of continually monitoring stress using various physiological factors has attracted much attention. By reducing the detrimental effects of chronic stress, early diagnosis of str...

Robot and ultrasound assisted needle insertion to the transverse carpal ligament.

Clinical biomechanics (Bristol, Avon)
BACKGROUND: A potential alternative treatment to surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome is to inject enzymes into the transverse carpal ligament to decrease its stiffness and alleviate pressure off the median nerve. An accurate injection is needed for de...

Design, Analysis and Experimental Validation of a Novel 7-Degrees of Freedom Instrument for Laparoscopic Surgeries.

Annals of biomedical engineering
Laparoscopic surgery is widely used for treating intra-abdominal conditions involving the gallbladder, pancreas, liver, intestines and reproductive organs. Conventional laparoscopy instruments used in manual surgeries usually have straight shafts and...

Analysis of the Leap Motion Controller's Performance in Measuring Wrist Rehabilitation Tasks Using an Industrial Robot Arm Reference.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The Leap Motion Controller (LMC) is a low-cost markerless optical sensor that performs measurements of various parameters of the hands that has been investigated for a wide range of different applications. Research attention still needs to focus on t...

Improving Automatic Control of Upper-Limb Prosthesis Wrists Using Gaze-Centered Eye Tracking and Deep Learning.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Many upper-limb prostheses lack proper wrist rotation functionality, leading to users performing poor compensatory strategies, leading to overuse or abandonment. In this study, we investigate the validity of creating and implementing a data-driven pr...

Fracture Detection in Wrist X-ray Images Using Deep Learning-Based Object Detection Models.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Hospitals, especially their emergency services, receive a high number of wrist fracture cases. For correct diagnosis and proper treatment of these, images obtained from various medical equipment must be viewed by physicians, along with the patient's ...

Three-Dimensional Carpal Arch Morphology Using Robot-Assisted Ultrasonography.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: The morphology of the carpal arch implicates the available space for the median nerve within the carpal tunnel. The purposes of this study were to 1) reconstruct the three-dimensional (3D) carpal arch by robot-assisted ultrasonography with...
