Pronation and Supination refer to the natural movements of the foot and arm. Pronation occurs when the foot or arm rolls inward, while Supination occurs when the foot or arm rolls outward. In the case of the foot, pronation helps absorb shock when the foot hits the ground, while Supination...
While most existing machines provide flexion of the arm, supination provides a needed exercise to further strengthen and condition arm muscles. The equipment is designed for people to perform a series of exercises that stimulate the growth and rehabilitation of arm muscles. The unique design ...
aGraphics in the previous sections show that is possible for this mechanism to develop the same movements like a biological arm as flexion‐extension, pronation‐supination and humeral rotation 图表在是可能为了这个机制能开发同样运动象一条生物胳膊象弯曲‐引伸、内旋‐旋后和肩自转的前面的部分展示[transl...
PronosupinationRehabilitation roboticsUser interfaceOne fundamental exercise for the upper extremity rehabilitation is the arm pronosupination, few rehabilitation devices can perform this exercise together with elbow or shoulder movements. The main contribution of this paper is the design and construction of ...
Activation of human arm muscles during flexion/extension and supination/pronation tasks: a theory on muscle coordination. Biol Cybern 61: 1-9, 1989a.Jongen HA, Denier van der Gon JJ, and Gielen CC. Activation of human arm muscles during flexion/extension and supination/pronation tasks: a ...
The MDS-UPDRS [2] presents instructions for assessing pronation and supination hand movements (item 3.6). Each hand is evaluated separately. The patient must extend the arm out in front of his/her body with their palms facing down, then turn the palm up and down alternately 10 times as fas...
The pronation/supination of the forearm are important movements to properly accomplish the activities of daily living. While several exoskeletons have been proposed for the rehabilitation of the arm, few of them have actively implemented the movements of pronation/supination. Often, the addition of thi...
