Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highly Commended by the BMA Medical Book Awards for Surgery! Reconstructive surgery of the upper extremity has progressed significantly due to advances in microsurgical techniques, which include the increased popularity of perforator flaps, refinements in functional free muscle transfer, the application of nerve conduits and nerve allografts, motor nerve transfers, and hand transplantation. These innovations have helped surgeons achieve functional reconstruction goals and enabled patients' return to normal functioning earlier than previously possible. Reconstructive Surgery of the Hand and Upper Extremity presents a unique, color-coded roadmap for managing the complex upper extremity patient, based on a logical approach to surgical decision-making.

This book was released on 1997-03-31 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While joint replacements at the lower extremity, particularly at the hip and knee, are performed on a daily basis in most departments of Orthopaedics, with great clinical success and long longetivity of the implant, the indications are much less frequent at the upper limb. Basic research follows the same tendency: while there are numerous basic or clinical research projects devoted to the hip or knee, very scarce reports are published on upper extremity joint replacements.The aims of publishing this volume are to promote the exchange of ideas, and to forster collaborative investigations among clinicians, manufacturers, engineers and other basic scientists involved with the problems of replacement arthroplasty in upper extremity joints, from the finger to the shoulder. The specific aims are: (1) to summarize scientific knowledge in the area of upper extremity joint replacement; (2) to discuss currently unsolved clinical problems and potential solutions based on current scientific knowledge; (3) to review new prosthetic designs; and (4) to explore future directions of investigation.In the first section, general concepts of arthroplasty and of upper extremity reconstruction are presented. Ronald Linscheid presents a short history of finger joint replacement. Alain Potaznik and Franz Burny discuss the problems of friction, wear and biological responses after the implantation of artificial joint replacement. Laurie Faro presents the European legislation for medical devices, such as arthroplasties. Finally, Frédéric Schuind and Franz Burny review the indications and contraindications to upper extremity arthroplasty.The following sections discuss for each upper extremity joint the indications of joint replacement, including the most frequent diseases, the prostheses designed for that particular joint, the biomechanical evaluation after prosthetic implantation, and the early or long-term clinical results. We made a special effort to include at the end of each section some alternative procedures of reconstruction.We are convinced that this unique book fills an important gap in the medical literature.

Download or read book Advances in upper limb loss rehabilitation: the role of targeted muscle reinnervation and regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces written by Yazan Al-Ajam and published by OAE Publishing Inc.. This book was released on 2022-12-29 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upper limb loss results in significant physical and psychological impairment and is a major financial burden for both patients and healthcare services. Current myoelectric prostheses rely on electromyographic (EMG) signals captured using surface electrodes placed directly over antagonistic muscles in the residual stump to drive a single degree of freedom in the prosthetic limb (e.g., hand open and close). In the absence of the appropriate muscle groups, patients rely on activation of biceps/triceps muscles alone (together with a mode switch) to control all degrees of freedom of the prosthesis. This is a non-physiological method of control since it is non-intuitive and contributes poorly to daily function. This leads to the high rate of prosthetic abandonment. Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) reroutes the ends of nerves in the amputation stump to nerves innervating “spare” muscles in the amputation stump or chest wall. These then become proxies for the missing muscles in the amputated limb. TMR has revolutionised prosthetic control, especially for high-level amputees (e.g., after shoulder disarticulation), resulting in more intuitive, fluid control of the prosthesis. TMR can also reduce the intensity of symptoms such as neuroma and phantom limb pain. Regenerative peripheral nerve interface (RPNI) is another technique for increasing the number of control signals without the limitations of finding suitable target muscles imposed by TMR. This involves wrapping a block of muscle around the free nerve ending, providing the regenerating axons with a target organ for reinnervation. These RPNIs act as signal amplifiers of the previously severed nerves and their EMG signals can be used to control prosthetic limbs. RPNI can also reduce neuroma and phantom limb pain. In this review article, we discuss the surgical technique of TMR and RPNI and present outcomes from our experience with TMR.

This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Census Bureau has reported that 56.7 million Americans had some type of disability in 2010, which represents 18.7 percent of the civilian noninstitutionalized population included in the 2010 Survey of Income and Program Participation. The U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA) provides disability benefits through the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program and the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. As of December 2015, approximately 11 million individuals were SSDI beneficiaries, and about 8 million were SSI beneficiaries. SSA currently considers assistive devices in the nonmedical and medical areas of its program guidelines. During determinations of substantial gainful activity and income eligibility for SSI benefits, the reasonable cost of items, devices, or services applicants need to enable them to work with their impairment is subtracted from eligible earnings, even if those items or services are used for activities of daily living in addition to work. In addition, SSA considers assistive devices in its medical disability determination process and assessment of work capacity. The Promise of Assistive Technology to Enhance Activity and Work Participation provides an analysis of selected assistive products and technologies, including wheeled and seated mobility devices, upper-extremity prostheses, and products and technologies selected by the committee that pertain to hearing and to communication and speech in adults.

This book was released on 2004-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is the only comprehensive guide to the surgery, prosthetic fitting, and rehabilitation of individuals sustaining an arm amputation. It incorporates the major advances in prosthetics and rehabilitation that have occurred in recent years, and will improve the quality of service and the outcomes for those who sustain an arm amputation. Sections deal with the surgical aspects of arm amputation, the comprehensive management of the arm amputee, prosthetic restoration following arm amputation, the special concerns of upper extremity amputation in children, and clinical outcomes. The incidence, demographics, and functional outcomes are quite different from those of lower limb amputees. The arm amputee is most commonly a young man who sustains a traumatic injury, most often to his right, dominant arm. Because the incidence of arm amputation is low compared to that of the lower extremity, relatively few health professionals have much experience in providing surgery, therapy, rehabilitation, prosthetic care, or counseling for a significant number of arm amputees. This book is the definitive text for these individuals. The prosthetic field, including its allied healthcare team, takes on a formidable task in restoring physical capabilities to the upper extremity amputee. This feat cannot be accomplished solely using modern technology, and technology is not always the central issue. Optimal rehabilitation requires an underlying commitment in many essential areas of care: for one, sensitivity to the desires, anxieties and fears of the individual with amputation. Although the prosthetic practitioner has at his or her disposal more technology than ever before, restoring integral function for the amputee involves still more than mechanical application. Interdisciplinary, cooperative efforts in research, development, and treatment between prosthetic practitioners and other constituents of the allied healthcare team is paramount. The rehabilitation process must focus not only on the provision and use of a prosthesis, but also on issues related to surgical procedures, self-determination and pain management. To this end, Functional Restoration of Adults and Children with Upper Extremity Amputation provides the definitive guide for all surgeons, prosthetists, and rehabilitation professionals who work with upper limb amputees.
