摘要:
The decision to choose between a CTLSO (Milwaukee brace) and a TLSO (such as the Boston system, Wilmington, Miami or Rosenberger orthosis) is affected by several factors including cosmesis, geographical preference and popularity of a given orthosis. Performance usually is a secondary consideration since objective comparisons have been difficultA finite element model was used to quantify and compare the effects of the CTLSO and TLSO in increasing spinal stability as measured in terms of the critical load of right primary thoracic with left lumbar compensatory and left primary lumbar with right compensatory idiopathic scoliotic curvesWhile the CTLSO and TLSO were equal in stabilizing lumbar primary curves, the TLSO was 25 percent less effective in stabilizing primary thoracic curves. Pad and counterforce placement were critical factors influencing stability for both the CTLSO and TLSO, demonstrating the importance of proper initial fit and timely growth adjustments to ensure proper pad placement throughout the duration of wear

摘要:
An eight-year retrospective outcomes study of 135 transtibial amputees was undertaken in which patient charts were reviewed and survivors were interviewed. The authors found the anklebrachial index to be of limited value in determining the level of amputation. Transcutaneous oxygen pressure of > 30 mmHg was a good indicator of successful healing, whereas that of 20-30 mmHg warrants further consideration. Ambulatory status after at least six months of follow-up care was found to be dependent on the etiology of limb loss, the state of the other limb, and the general health and age of the patient

摘要:
Some arm amputees who wear upper-limb, body-powered prostheses experience discomfort in the sound-side axilla due to pressure exerted by the so-called “Figure 8” shoulder harness. This article reports the development and testing of a ring to relieve pressure in the axilla. Subjective responses to initial testing by amputees suggest the ring helps relieve the discomfort

摘要:
On a daily basis, practitioners in orthotics and prosthetics collect hundreds of pieces of data that can be integrated into clinical research studies. A well-written research proposal guides investigators through the research process. It describes questions or hypotheses to be studied, the purpose of the study, a review of the literature, how the study will be conducted and how data will be analyzed. The proposal also may include estimates of equipment, supplies, and human and financial resources. The process of research is relevant to the orthotic and prosthetic practitioner's roles as clinician, manager and educator. It should not disrupt the daily routine but should facilitate practice and improve models for service delivery

摘要:
As the final section of the research paper, the discussion serves as the forum for the examination and interpretation of the results, placing the results into theoretical and practical contextThe purpose of this article is to “discuss the discussion” as it pertains to content, format and style. The discussion consists of a summary and explanation of the results, an acknowledgment of the study's limitations, and a discussion of how the results should influence clinical practiceDiscussion implies a sifting and consideration of possibilities, and the writer should take the reader through this thought process as alternative interpretations are first considered then dismissed, modified or adopted. The results from the study are compared to others in the literature, and differences and similarities in the findings are explained. Limitations of the study must be acknowledged and remaining questions identified. The discussion should finish clearly and concisely with a simple “take-home” message of what the study means

摘要:
Simple regression models sometimes are employed by researchers to analyze the relationship between a dependent variable and an independent variableThe most common relationship analyzed is a linear association expressed by the following equation:y=b0+ b1xwhere y represents the dependent variable, x represents the independent variable, b0represents a constant, and b1represents the slope of the linear fitThis article demonstrates the use of simple regression applied to gait analysis. The relationship of energy consumption in milliliters of oxygen per kilogram per minute (ml/kg/ min) as a function of gait velocity in meters per minute (m/min) is studied
