The Prosthetic Representative
A small corps of 86 dedicated employees has become the most important “key” in the VA Prosthetic and Sensory Aids program. These men are our prosthetic representatives. Early in 1946, it was decided that some one person in each major field station must be given the specific job of carrying the new VA prosthetics program directly to disabled veterans. Such responsibility could not be given to th...
متن کاملProsthetic loading during kneeling of persons with transfemoral amputation.
Observations in the field of lower limb prosthetic rehabilitation have shown that several transfemoral prostheses show signs of wear on some components of the knee unit. This is thought to be a result of severe loading developed during activities associated with kneeling. Some prostheses may have failed due to repetitive action of such loading. In order to determine the nature and magnitude of ...
متن کاملImplant after Prosthetic Loading
implant-prosthetic parameters and marginal bone loss (MBL) around implants and survival rate at 5.7 ±3.2 years of follow-up after prosthetic loading. Eighty-two patients received 164 external hexagon implants. After the standard healing period (3 to 6 months), the implants were restored with single-tooth or up to three splinted crowns. All patients were followed according to a strict maintenanc...
متن کاملThe Use of Structured Imagery and Dispositional Measurement to Assess Situational Use of Mindfulness Skills
The recent proliferation of studies on mindfulness produced varying theoretical models, each based in part on how mindfulness is assessed. These models agree, however, that mindfulness encompasses moment-to-moment or situational experiences. Incongruence between dispositional and situational assessment would be problematic for theory and empirical research. In particular, it remains to be estab...
متن کاملTissue loading created during spinal manipulation in comparison to loading created by passive spinal movements
Spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) creates health benefits for some while for others, no benefit or even adverse events. Understanding these differential responses is important to optimize patient care and safety. Toward this, characterizing how loads created by SMT relate to those created by typical motions is fundamental. Using robotic testing, it is now possible to make these comparisons to d...
