Résumé :
Raccoons have been widely used for neurobiological research and with respect to paw (hand) use have been 'considered' to be primates because they display highly developed skilled hand use. Their exceptional manipulatory ability is puzzling from an evolutionary perspective both because they belong to a taxon that is divergent from primates and because most members of their taxon are not especially skilled. Surprisingly, there has been no systematic investigation of their manipulatory ability. This was the purpose of the present study. Captive and zoo-housed raccoons were video recorded during f

Résumé :
Hand loss profoundly impacts daily functioning. Reversal of amputation through hand replantation or transplantation offers an alternative to prosthetics for some. Whether recipients exhibit more extensive and natural limb use during everyday life than prosthesis users is, however, unknown. We asked unilateral, below-elbow amputees (N = 22), hand graft recipients (transplants N = 4; replants N = 2), and healthy matched controls (N = 20) to wear wireless accelerometers distally on their forearms/prostheses and proximally on their upper arms. These units captured limb activity over 3 days within

Résumé :
The use of hands for gathering rich sensory information is essential for proper interaction with the environment; therefore, the restoration of sensation is critical for reestablishing the sense of embodiment in hand amputees. Here, we show that a noninvasive wearable device can be used to provide thermal sensations on amputees’ phantom hands. The device delivers thermal stimuli to specific regions of skin on their residual limb. These sensations were phenomenologically similar to those on the intact limbs and were stable over time. Using the device, the subjects could successfully exploit the

Introduction: Cerebral palsy is one of the common causes of disability in children due to brain damage. For this reason, children with cerebral palsy should be placed in a rehabilitation process suitable for their age and developmental stage. There are various treatment approaches to improve the condition of children with cerebral palsy. However, there are few approaches that specifically focus on both the upper and lower limbs. In the meantime, two-hand intensive hand-arm therapy including the lower limbs was proposed as an approach that can focus on the upper and lower limbs. It also affects

Stroke is particularly prevalent in older people and the effects of stroke can be profound.

Upper limb amputation is a significant limitation for achieving routine activities. Myoelectric signals detected by electrodes well-known as Electromyography (EMG) have been targeted to control upper limb prostheses of such lost limbs. Unfortunately, the acquisition, processing and use of such myoelectric signals are sophisticated. Furthermore, it necessarily requires complex computation to fulfil accuracy, robustness, and time-consumption execution for the real-time prosthesis application.

The article deals with the use of different types of upper limb prostheses in Slovenia. Four hundred and fourteen upper limb amputees were sent a questionnaire on the type of their prosthesis, its use and reasons for non-use, respectively. The replies were subject to statistical analysis. Most of the questioned upper limb amputees (70%) wear a prosthesis only for cosmesis. The use of a prosthesis depends on the level of upper limb amputation, loss of the dominant hand, and time from amputation.

Résumé :
The analyses of regenerative medicine progress, stem cell biology, and platelet rich plasma growth factor mechanisms of action have pushed many researchers to use orthobiological drugs in their clinical practice. This review aimed to present the use of regenerative techniques and orthobiological drugs in the treatment of upper limb diseases. The open electronic database of PubMed (MEDLINE) was used in the search for scientific studies. The literature search was conducted using the keywords regenerative medicine, orthobiology, hand, wrist joint, platelet rich plasma, mesenchymal stem cells, and

Résumé :
After stroke, upper limb motor impairment is one of the most common consequences that compromises the level of the autonomy of patients. In a neurorehabilitation setting, the implementation of wearable sensors provides new possibilities for enhancing hand motor recovery. In our study, we tested an innovative wearable (REMO®) that detected the residual surface-electromyography of forearm muscles to control a rehabilitative PC interface. The aim of this study was to define the clinical features of stroke survivors able to perform ten, five, or no hand movements for rehabilitation training. 117 s

Résumé :
A six-channel instrumented load transducer has been developed for measuring hand and upper limb loading (maximum design load, 2 kN). Modular in design, the transducer can be adapted to a variety of formats, thereby increasing the range of activities to which it can be applied. When used with a motion analysis system, hand loading can be determined with respect to a laboratory coordinate system irrespective of transducer orientation and position. Measurement accuracy of approximately ± 1 per cent of applied loading has been determined through a system calibration.

When using a upper-limb prosthesis, mental, emotional, and physical effort is often experienced. These have been linked to high rates of device dissatisfaction and rejection. Therefore, understanding and quantifying the complex nature of workload experienced when using, or learning to use, a upper-limb prosthesis has practical and clinical importance for researchers and applied professionals. The aim of this paper was to design and validate a self-report measure of mental workload specific to prosthesis use (The Prosthesis Task Load Index; PROS-TLX) that encapsulates the array of mental, physi

This report describes a new technique for fastening a hip disarticulation socket. It was developed at the request of the patient who needed to fasten his prosthesis using only one hand, because of a left upper limb disability. Snowboard boot bindings were secured to the socket of the prosthesis and allowed it to be securely fastened and released using his dominant hand only. The design of the bindings permitted a high closing force with minimum one-handed effort by the user.

Therefore, it is important to use tests that allow an adequate assessment and follow-up of such deficits. Physical and occupational therapists commonly use maximal grip strength tests to assess the functional condition of stroke individuals. However, one could ask whether a single test is able to characterize the hand function in this population.

The most intuitive mechanism for this apparent enlargement is increased, i.e. compensatory, use of the healthy hand. We investigated whether enlargement of the S1 representation of the healthy hand is associated with compensatory use in response to CRPS. Specifically, we were interested in whether the size of the S1 representation of the healthy hand is associated with the severity of functional impairm

Résumé :
Abstract Stroke is an acute hypoperfusion of cerebral parenchyma that most often leads to outstanding motor deficits that can last for the rest of the patient’s life. The purpose of the neurorehabilitation process is to limit, as far is possible for the motor deficits and to bring the patient to an independent life. A modern method consists in robotic neurorehabilitation which is more and more used, associated with functional electrical stimulation (FES). At the lower limb, the use of robotic rehabilitation associated with FES is already considered a success due to relatively stereotypical mov

Hand gesture classification is crucial for the control of many modern technologies, ranging from virtual and augmented reality systems to assistive mechatronic devices. A prominent control technique employs surface electromyography (EMG) and pattern recognition algorithms to identify specific patterns in muscle electrical activity and translate these to device commands. While being well established in consumer, clinical, and research applications, this technique suffers from misclassification errors caused by limb movements and the weight of manipulated objects, both vital aspects of how we us
