Intrinsic hand muscle function, part 1: creating a functional grasp.
PURPOSE Regaining hand function has been identified as the highest priority for persons with tetraplegia. In many patients, finger flexion can be restored with a tendon transfer of extensor carpi radialis longus to flexor digitorum profundus (FDP). In the absence of intrinsic function, this results in a roll-up finger movement, which tends to push large objects out of grasp. To enable patients ...
متن کاملImmediate Effect of Mirror Therapy Using Pegboard Training on Hand Function and Muscle Activities in Individuals with Asymmetrical Hand Function
Objectives: Hand function is critical for daily life and work, especially with the use of electronic devices. This study determined the effect of mirror therapy in individuals with asymmetrical hand function. Method: Forty-two men with asymmetrical hand function were recruited. All participants were randomly divided into two groups: sham control (n = 21) and mirror therapy (n = 21). Both group...
متن کاملGrasp Planning for a Humanoid Hand
We focus on grasp planning for a humanoid multi-fingered hand attached at the tip of a humanoid robot’s arm. The hand has potential possibility to grasp various objects under several situations. Since the multi-fingered hand can use several grasp types such as fingertip grasp, and envelope grasp with taking the advantage of degrees of freedom. We develop grasp planner which selects a feasible g...
متن کاملInappropriate intrinsic muscle action in the rheumatoid hand.
The classic appearance of the rheumatoid hand with swollen and often dislocated metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints, atrophic intrinsic muscle compartments, ulnar deviating fingers, and variously hyperextended or flexed and swollen interphalangeal joints is easily recognized. The explanation of the mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of the intrinsic muscle atrophy (exclusive of the atrophy of...
متن کاملGrasp analysis of a four-fingered robotic hand based on Matlab simmechanics
The structure of the human hand is a complex design comprising of various bones, joints, tendons, and muscles functioning together in order to produce the desired motion. It becomes a challenging task to develop a robotic hand replicating the capabilities of the human hand. In this paper, the analysis of the four-fingered robotic hand is carried out where the tendon wires and a spring return me...
