  • simulated crepitus and its reality based specification using wearable patient dummy
    Advanced Robotics, 2015
    Co-Authors: Shu Ishikawa, Shogo Okamoto, Yasuhiro Akiyama, Kaoru Isogai, Yoji Yamada
    Abstract:

    Physical therapists are trained in manual examination techniques to test the impaired motor functions of patients. In this study, we have introduced a wearable robotic dummy Joint to simulate disordered Joint resistances or behaviors to support physical therapists in learning such techniques. We developed a Discontinuous Joint friction model based on a stick-slip phenomenon to simulate knee Joint resistances caused by crepitus, a typical symptom accompanied by osteoarthritis. Practicing therapists participated in a reality-based evaluation test and specified acceptable parameter sets to adjust the simulated crepitus for the exoskeletal patient robot. The simulated crepitus and wearable dummy Joint are expected to support the training of physical therapists.

  • Wearable dummy to simulate Joint impairment: Model for the Discontinuous friction resistance due to arthritis
    2012 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics (ROBIO), 2012
    Co-Authors: Shun Ishikawa, Shogo Okamoto, Yasuhiro Akiyama, Kaoru Isogai, Yoji Yamada, Susumu Hara
    Abstract:

    Physical therapists master manual examination techniques for testing impaired motor functions. We developed a wearable robotic dummy Joint to simulate disordered Joint resistances for supporting physical therapists to learn such techniques. A model to simulate Discontinuous Joint friction resistances due to diseases such as osteoarthritis was developed. Because such resistance originates from abnormal frictions of bones and cartilages, we used a stick-slip model to simulate the resistances. The model was validated based on the introspection of physical therapists. This study concludes that a Discontinuous friction model presents forces that are perceptually similar to those typically caused by damaged or roughened Joint cartilages.
