This chapter will explore more on the design procedure of a prosthetic leg and the calculations that come into play in this procedure. The design will be based on the parameters and function of a normal leg and also on the current available prosthetic legs. In prosthetic leg calculations‚ the main factors to consider are the kinematics‚ kinetics and the energetics. Kinetic quantities are computed by first measuring the external forces acting on the body. For normal walking‚ the external forces are

Initially‚ the stimulating current was set between 1.5 to 2 mA‚ and the frequency of stimulation was set at 2 Hz. The intensity of the stimulating current was gradually decreased as the needle approached the

Researchers tested this in preserved specimens of Petaurista and in both preserved and fresh specimens of Glaucomys by pulling on the tendon of the abductor pollicis longus to simulate flexion of this muscle. With the hand abducted and dorsiflexed‚ a pull on the tendon of the abductor caused the wing tip to extend and to be held in a normal gliding position. The flexor carpi ulnaris muscle‚ innervated by the ulnar nerve‚ takes origin by

The movements associated in the arm‚ forearm‚ wrist‚ and fingers are flexion‚ extension‚ abduction‚ rotation‚ and adduction. 7. After reattachment‚ movement would be diminished because not all of the nerve fibers would necessarily be reattached. 8. Collateral circulation is the circulation of blood through modified vessels

After several more minutes JA was extending his left elbow along with left hand finger extension which is normally in flexion at the elbow and the fingers. I applied the hand over hand technique in order for JA to tap the balloon and he smiled. This weight bearing activity elicited overall decreased tone which is what we were anticipating.

The movements are rotation and circumduction‚ extension‚ flexion‚ hyperextension‚ supination and pronation. 7. Explain how the movements of the reattached arm might be altered after the reattachment. The nervous system reattachment grew back together well but it did not function the same way. 8. Identify specific

ROM and Strengthening Exercises as a Treatment Option There are multiple kinds of exercise that could be beneficial in treating acute whiplash. Literature shows exercises such as a McKenzie treatment‚ postural training exercise‚ endurance strengthening and motor control‚ eye fixation‚ isometric exercises‚ and resistive exercises. In reviewing the literature‚ these exercises were combined with other treatment strategies such as modalities or mobilization to get the most effective outcome. Also
