Abstract:
When fabricating a small diameter arterial prosthesis, the performance requirements include controlling dimensions, maintaining a uniform structure, ensuring superior mechanical properties as well as excellent biocompatibility. Material selection and fabricating methods can influence these factors. In this study, three 100% polyester prostheses, three bicomponent polyester/silk prostheses and three 100% silk prostheses were woven into seamless tubular prototype prostheses with three different basic weaves. After degumming/scouring they met the target inner diameter of 3.83 ± 0.30 mm which demo

Abstract:
State-of-the-art high-end prostheses are electro-mechanically able to provide a great variety of movements. Nevertheless, in order to functionally replace a human limb, it is essential that each movement is properly controlled. This is the goal of prosthesis control, which has become a growing research field in the last decades, with the ultimate goal of reproducing biological limb control. Therefore, exploration and development of prosthesis control are crucial to improve many aspects of an amputee’s life. Nowadays, a large divergence between academia and industry has become evident in commer

Abstract:
A tactile glove sensory system of the haptic feedback stimulation system for the upper limb prostheses was developed in this work to enable the patients of the upper limb amputation to recover the sense of touch and slippage. The system features six of a spot piezoresistive force sensors of type Quantum tunnelling composites (QTC) with 10 mm diameter, in order to measure the contact pressure between the hand and the objects. Five sensors were distributed on each fingertip and an extra sensor was mounted on the hand’s palm to cover all the critical point and increase the probability of detec

Abstract:
Falls and fear of falling are significant problems arising from impaired balancing abilities that affect people with lower limb amputation during unassisted transfer manoeuvres and ambulation. It is important to develop and evaluate efficient therapeutic interventions aimed at improving balancing and coordination skills. A group of 14 persons after trans-tibial amputation, fitted with trans-tibial prostheses, were included in a balance-training programme, consisting of approximately 20 minutes of balance training per day for five consecutive days on BalanceReTrainer – a novel balance-training,

Clinically used heart valve prostheses, despite their progress, are still associated with limitations. Biodegradable poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) nanofiber scaffolds, as a matrix, were seeded with human endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs) and human induced-pluripotent stem cells-derived MSCs (iMSCs) for the generation of tissue-engineered heart valves. Cell adhesion, proliferation, and distribution, as well as the effects of coating PCL nanofibers, were analyzed by fluorescence microscopy and SEM. Mechanical properties of seeded PCL scaffolds were investigated under uniaxial loading. iPSCs w

INTRODUCTION: Cranioplasty is a routine neurosurgical procedure but carries significant morbidity. Government hospitals in lower-middle-income-countries cannot afford conventional PEEK/Titanium patient-specific 3D-printed commercial implants, which have better clinical-cosmetic outcomes than free-hand polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cranioplasty. Therefore, free-hand PMMA cranioplasty remains the most commonly utilised method nationally.

The patient was left with oral, nasal, and orbital communication. Rehabilitation with a silicone facial cover was planned because the patient’s chief complaint was mouth dryness during sleep, and air leakage through the defects was considered a cause of this dryness.

The functional design of the boundaries of the prosthesis behind the molar area provides for the base to cover the mucous membrane of the alveolar tubercle, without displacement by the impression material. In the lateral areas, the base of the prosthesis should ensure free movement of the mylohyoid muscle. In the area of the retromaxillary-hyoid line, the functional state of the hyoglossus muscle should be taken into account.

In addition, the choice of a method of surgical treatment in itself poses new questions for specialists in regard to what methods to adhere to including prosthesis-preserving technique, prosthesis explantation and its replacement with a synthetic or biological graft, and the use of omentum to cover the infected bed.
