The static model considered the correlation between PIP and DIP joints, as well as their range of motion, and it included phalanges, joints, and two flexion tendons, each to flex one joint. An animation was introduced to represent that motion using Matlab plots. After that, a third partially...
The Ascension PIP (Ascension Orthopedics, Inc., Austin, TX) pyrocarbon total joint is a bicondylar, anatomically shaped, articulating implant that allows joint flexion-extension, while providing some restriction of adduction-abduction motion. The FDA granted a humanitarian use device approval for the ...
How would your range of motion be affected if you lacked a sternocleidomastoid? How is Guillain-Barre syndrome caused? Is a thrust fault and an uplifting the same? Is flexion synarthrosis or diarthrosis? How is spinal stenosis corrected? What does a reverse fault focal mechanism show? What is...
Conclusions The wide range in all radiographic parameters for LDS confirms the heterogeneous nature of this condition and suggests that a grading system to subclassify LDS may be clinically useful. On flexion and extension radiographs, increased translational motion correlated with increased angular motion...
