Abstract:

A study has been made of data on 19,421 prosthetic limbs prescribed for 12,143 Australians under the Free Limb Scheme in the years 1981–1985. These prostheses consisted of 18,119 legs and 1,302 arms. The mean age of the lower limb prosthesis user was 52.8 and the upper limb prosthesis user 31.3 years. Males outnumbered females by 3 to 1 in the upper limb prosthesis users, and 2.8 to 1 with lower limb prosthesis users. Below-knee prostheses, patellar-tendon-bearing and thigh-lacing prostheses, made up 58.7% of all prostheses prescribed in the time span. Below-elbow prostheses were the commonest

Abstract:

Passive knee prostheses require a significant amount of additional metabolic energy to carry out a gait cycle, therefore affecting the natural human walk performance. Current active knee prostheses are still limited because they do not reply with accuracy of the natural human knee movement, and the time response is relatively large. This paper presents the design and control of a new biomimetic-controlled transfemoral knee prosthesis based on a polycentric-type mechanism. The aim was to develop a knee prosthesis able to provide additional power and to mimic with accuracy of the natural human k

Abstract:

Background: For individuals with transfemoral amputation, walking with a prosthesis presents challenges to stability and increases the demand on the hip of the prosthetic limb. Increasing age or comorbidities magnify these challenges. Computerized prosthetic knee joints improve stability and efficiency of gait, but are seldom prescribed for less physically capable walkers who may benefit from them. Objective: To compare level walking function while wearing a microprocessor-controlled knee (C-Leg Compact) prosthesis to a traditionally prescribed non-microprocessor-controlled knee prosthesis for

Abstract:

A temporary prosthesis has been developed for above-knee amputees who receive long-term post-amputation chemotherapy. The temporary prosthesis has an adjustable laminated quadrilateral socket, the size of which is adjusted by metal screws. Fifteen patients were fitted with the temporary prosthesis. Initial fittings were carried out after a period averaging 46 days from amputation. All of the patients were able to walk with one crutch after about one month from initial fitting. Although patients often had to discontinue their prosthetic training owing to chemotherapy, they could resume wearing

Abstract:

While all lower limb prosthesis walkers have a high risk of tripping and/or falling, above knee prosthesis users are reported to fall more frequently. Recognising this, engineers designed microprocessor knees (MPK) to help mitigate these risks, but to what extent these devices reduce this disparity between above and below knee users is unclear. A service review was carried out in a prosthetic limb centre regarding the frequency of trips and falls in the previous four weeks. Data from unilateral, community ambulators were extracted.

Abstract:

The aim of this review article is to appraise the design and functionality of above-knee prosthetic legs. So far, various transfemoral prosthetic legs are found to offer a stable gait to amputees but are limited to laboratories. The commercially available prosthetic legs are not reliable and comfortable enough to satisfy amputees. There is a dire need for creating a powered prosthetic knee joint that could address amputees’ requirements. To pinpoint the gap in transfemoral prosthetic legs, prosthetic knee unit model designs, control frameworks, kinematics, and gait evaluations are concentrated

Abstract. The existing lower limb prostheses with passive knees have disadvantages, causing an asymmetric gait and higher metabolic cost during level walking which is in contrast with a normal gait. However, most existing active knee prostheses need a significant amount of energy. In this paper, a novel hybrid passive–active knee prosthesis (HPAK) that allows passive and active operating modes is proposed, which contains an active motor unit and a novel hydraulic damper with an electrically controlled valve that adjusts the damping torque dynamically during each gait cycle.

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has revolutionized the life of millions of patients and it is the most efficient treatment in cases of osteoarthritis. The increase in life expectancy has lowered the average age of the patient, which requires a more enduring and performing prosthesis. To improve the design of implants and satisfying the patient's needs, a deep understanding of the knee Biomechanics is needed. To overcome the uncertainties of numerical models, recently instrumented knee prostheses are spreading. The aim of the thesis was to design and manifacture a new prototype of instrumented i

These two classes of implant have not been used since 2014 and 2012, respectively. There are two bearing surfaces used in total conventional hip replacement that are no longer used: procedures performed with ceramic heads on metal bearings and procedures performed with metal heads on ceramic bearings.

These two classes of implants have not been used since 2014 and 2012, respectively.

Abstract:

Introduction: There is a paucity of published data on whether a treated infected arthroplasty is a risk factor for infection in another, non-operated joint. Contamination of a primary, arthritic, non-operated joint from an infected arthroplasty is a relatively rare entity. Case: We report a case of migration of a pathogen (Enterococcus faecalis) from an infected prosthetic joint (hip) to the contralateral native joint (knee). Identification of the pathogen was made with PCR, by obtaining cultures during the implantation of the primary knee prosthesis. Conclusion: Contamination of a primary, ar

Abstract:

This supplementary report provides demographic information and outcomes for revision hip and knee procedures. There are separate sections for hip and knee replacement. Each section provides overall demographic and summary data. More detailed information, including types of revision, reasons for revision and outcomes are provided for the 1st revision where the primary procedure was captured by the Registry. These analyses are restricted to cases with a primary diagnosis of osteoarthritis and exclude those revised for infection. For hip replacement overall, the most common reason for revision is

Abstract:

Background: To our knowledge, no authors have published the implant of a three-component device under local anesthesia, until now. The aim of this paper is to report this particular case focusing on its technical and anatomical details. Materials and Methods: A 60-years-old man presented to our attention due to erectile dysfunction unresponsive to PDE-I oral and alprostadil intracavernosal therapies, following a motorbike trauma accident with multiple lumbosacral vertebral fracture and incomplete S2-S4 spinal cord injury. After the trauma accident, the patient immediately underwent spinal surg
