ROBIO - Improvement of Multi-Body Simulation Model for Comparative Study of Cervical Traction Therapy - Comparison Between Inclined and Sitting Traction
2018 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics (ROBIO), 2018Co-Authors: Lawrence K. F. Wong, Nobuyuki Kurusu, Keiji FujinoAbstract:A computer simulation model was developed to study the behavior of the Cervical spine during Cervical Traction therapy in inclined and sitting Traction positions. The model improved upon an old model with additional components to represent the behavior of the intervertebral discs and the posterior ligaments. The simulation result of the new model was compared against the Cervical Traction data from a radiographic experiment in both positions. The simulation results of the old model and new model were compared to illustrate the improvement. Using the new model, we compared the timing response of Cervical Traction in the inclined and sitting positions.

Comparative experiment and dynamic simulation on Cervical Traction therapy
2016 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics (ROBIO), 2016Co-Authors: Lawrence K. F. Wong, Nobuyuki Kurusu, Keiji FujinoAbstract:This study aims to verify the accuracy of a Cervical Traction therapy simulation model by comparing the intervertebral separations of six normal male adults when Traction applied to their Cervical spines. The subjects were tested on two mechanical Traction devices, representing the inclined and sitting positions. Radiographic images of their Cervical spines were taken before, during and after Traction. The observed changes of the Cervical spine were used as input to adjust parameters of the Traction therapy model, which contains a Cervical spine built with springs and dampers and two Traction devices in inclined and sitting positions. A series of Traction forces and Traction angles were applied to the model to simulate the actual parameters used in the experiment and the new model was used to evaluate the two Traction positions. The result suggests that inclined position not only creates greater intervertebral separations on the posterior sides, it also provides a more accurate and smoother transition when switching between different Traction angles.
