  1. 11. The evidence base of elevated vacuum and pin-lock suspension system in transtibial prosthetic users: A literature review with a systematic approach

    University essay from Jönköping University/HHJ. Ortopedteknisk plattform

    Author : Louise Dömstedt; Malin Stafås; [2022]
    Keywords : transtibial prosthetics; transtibial suspension method; elevated vacuum; active vacuum; pin-lock;

    Abstract : Aim: This review aims to describe the existing evidence base for using elevated vacuum suspension and pin-lock suspension systems in regards to fluctuations of limb volume, balance, effect on gait (spatial and temporal, kinematic, and kinetic data), and in-socket movement (pistoning and transverse forces). Background: There is a growing population with a TT amputation thus there is an increased demand for TT prosthetic solutions. READ MORE

  3. 12. Infektiös keratokonjunktivit hos semidomesticerad ren (Rangifer tarandus tarandus)

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Julia Bonevik; [2022]
    Keywords : Infektiös keratokonjunktivit; ren; CvHV2; klamydia; kornealödem; kornealulcer;

    Abstract : Infektiös keratokonjunktivit, IKC, är en ögonsjukdom som drabbar flera arter, däribland ren. Sjukdomen rapporterades på ren för första gången för mer än 100 år sedan, men ännu är mycket okänt kring sjukdomsprevalens, sjukdomsframkallande agens och riskfaktorer för insjuknande. READ MORE

  6. 15. A Methodology to Quantify Alignment of Transtibial and Transfemoral Prostheses using Optical Motion Capture System

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Þórey Ásgeirsdóttir; [2022]
    Keywords : Alignment; Lower limb amputees; Prosthesis; Motion Capture;

    Abstract : Background: Lower limb amputees face many challenges, and most of them prefer to use prosthetics for daily tasks and activities. The prosthesis is usually a combination of connected prosthetic components, and their spatial orientation is called the prosthetic alignment. READ MORE
