چکیده
Suday, O cber 8, 2017 INTRODUCTION: Breast cancer (BC) survivors that have had an axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) have an increased risk of developing upper extremity lymphedema. The problem faced by both patients and clinicians is the decision to proceed with a carpal tunnel release (CTR) if the patient does not respond to non-surgical management. The purpose of this study was to determine the treatment decision that yields the highest quality adjusted life years (QALY) for BC survivors at risk for lymphedema presenting with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).

Hand Functions of Myoelectric and 3D-Printed Pressure-Sensored Prosthetics: A Comparative Study
The loss of an upper limb significantly limits the functional activities of daily living. A huge emphasis is placed on the manipulation, shape, weight, and comfort of a prosthesis, to enable its use as an inherent body part. Even with technological advances, customized upper-extremity myoelectric prosthesis remain heavy and expensive. The high cost of upper-extremity prosthesis is an especially...
متن کاملImproving the Robustness of Real-Time Myoelectric Pattern Recognition against Arm Position Changes in Transradial Amputees
Previous studies have showed that arm position variations would significantly degrade the classification performance of myoelectric pattern-recognition-based prosthetic control, and the cascade classifier (CC) and multiposition classifier (MPC) have been proposed to minimize such degradation in offline scenarios. However, it remains unknown whether these proposed approaches could also perform w...
متن کاملDevelopment and Control of a Multigrasp Myoelectric Hand Prosthesis by Skyler
This paper presents an anthropomorphic prototype hand prosthesis that is intended for use with a multiple channel myoelectric interface. The hand contains 16 joints, which are differentially driven by a set of five independent actuators. The hand prototype was designed with the minimum number of independent actuators required to provide a set of eight canonical hand postures. This paper describ...

متن کاملThe Development of a Myoelectric Training Tool for Above-Elbow Amputees
The objective of above-elbow myoelectric prostheses is to reestablish the functionality of missing limbs and increase the quality of life of amputees. By using electromyography (EMG) electrodes attached to the surface of the skin, amputees are able to control motors in myoelectric prostheses by voluntarily contracting the muscles of their residual limb. This work describes the development of an...
