A New Device for Improving Foot Marker Alignment
Introduction: Most clinical gait laboratories employ a simplified, one-segment, single-vector foot model. Misalignment of the markers used to define the foot vector leads to inaccuracies and increased variability in the measurement of dorsi-plantar flexion, foot progression and ankle rotation angles. Errors and variability in these angles is a significant problem since these metrics are frequen...
متن کاملReliability and Precision of in Vivo Scapular Kinematic Measurements Using an Electromagnetic Tracking Device
Context: In vivo scapular kinematics during humeral movements are commonly assessed with electromagnetic tracking devices despite few published data related to reliability and precision of these measurements. Objective: To determine the intrasession reliability and precision of assessing scapular kinematics using an electromagnetic tracking device. Design: Scapular position and orientation were...
متن کاملA Customer Oriented Approach for Distribution System Reliability Improvement using Optimal Distributed Generation and Switch Placement
The reliability of distribution networks is inherently low due to their radial nature, consequently distribution companies (DisCos) usually seek to improve the system reliability indices with the minimum possible investment cost. This can be known as system-oriented reliability planning (SORP). However, there can exist some customers that are not satisfied by their reliability determined by ado...
متن کاملImproving the reliability of molecular sexing of birds using a W-specific marker.
Molecular techniques for identifying sex of birds utilize length differences between CHD-Z and CHD-W introns, but in some cases these methods can lead to sexing errors. Here we show that an additional W-specific primer can be used in conjunction with a pre-existing sexing primer pair to dramatically improve the reliability of molecular sexing methods. We illustrate the approach with American co...
متن کاملTranspyloric Feeding Tube Placement Using Electromagnetic Placement Device in Children.
BACKGROUND Transpyloric feeding tubes (TPT) are often recommended in critically ill children. Blind tube placement, however, can be difficult, be time-consuming, and incur multiple radiation exposures. An electromagnetic device (EMD) is available for confirmation of successful placement of TPTs. We conducted a retrospective cohort study to evaluate the efficacy of an EMD for TPT placement in ch...
