OBJECTIVE Dressing is an important activity of daily living, yet many older adults have difficulty due to impairments. The purpose of this study was to explore the use of assistive devices for dressing by older persons with impairments, and to look at differences among frail elders with no dressing difficulty, upper-extremity-only dressing difficulty, lower-extremity-only dressing difficulty, a...
Effort thrombosis of the upper extremity refers to a deep venous thrombosis of the upper extremity resulting from repetitive activity of the upper limb. Most cases of effort thrombosis occur in young elite athletes with strenuous upper extremity activity. This article reports two cases who both developed upper extremity deep vein thromboses, the first being a 67-year-old bowler and the second a...
Primary varicose veins of the upper extremity constitute a rare pathological entity with a few references in the literature, in contrast to those of the lower extremity. The diagnostic approach is necessary in order to eliminate the case of secondary varicose veins, whereas the therapy is similar to those of the lower extremity. We present the case of a 37 year-old male with primary varicose ve...
Stress fractures of the upper extremity and thorax are often unrecognized injuries in athletes and nonathletes. The authors reviewed the causative activities and anatomic distribution of rib and upper-extremity stress fractures. Radiographic and clinical information was reviewed for each case to determine anatomic site and causative activity of each stress fracture. Stress fracture, although an...
Over the past decade several developments have lead to an increased interest in lower extremity PNBs including transient neurologic symptoms associated with spinal anesthesia, increased risk of epidural hematoma with the introduction of new antithromboembolic prophylaxis regimens, and evidence of improved rehabilitation outcome with continuous lower extremity PNBs. Simultaneously, the field of ...
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is an important disease and occurred in lower extremities ,commonly. Approximately 10% of all cases of DVT involve the upper extremities. Upper-extremity DVT is an increasingly entity due to more catheter user and pace maker implantation. Because of potential risk of Pulmonary embolism , Upper-extremity DVT is clinically important condition. Involvement of upper extr...
Bier block anesthesia is an intravenous regional anesthesia technique in which an extremity is made numb for surgery by injecting a local anesthetic solution into a vein after the blood has been squeezed out of the extremity and a tourniquet has been placed on it. The tourniquet prevents the local anesthetic from leaving the extremity and blood from entering it, giving the patient a numb (anes...
Although autonomous robotic systems perform remarkably in structured environments (e.g., factories), integrated human–robotic systems are superior to any autonomous robotic systems in unstructured environments that demand significant adaptation. The technology associated with exoskeleton systems and human power augmentation can be divided into lower-extremity exoskeletons and upper-extremity ex...
GANGRENE and eyanosis of an extremity, due to thrombophlebitis with massive venous occlusions, is an uncommon condition and is often confused with primary arterial oeclusive disease. With massive venous occlusion and the associated arterial venospasm the blood flow may be so impeded to an extremity that cyanosis and eventually gangrene may occur. The recognition of this is important, since this...
BACKGROUND One third of cases of upper-extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) are primary, ie, they occur in the absence of central venous catheters or cancer. Risk factors for primary upper-extremity DVT are not well established, and the recurrence rate is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 115 primary upper-extremity DVT patients and 797 healthy controls for the presence of thrombophilia...
