Abstract:
(text automatically translated from Italian) The first part of the lesson is devoted to the analysis of normal walking, with particular reference to kinematics, kinetics and neuromuscular events. Below is a description of the way in some pathological forms of disability (subjects with cerebral palsy, people with bone and joint diseases, spinal cord injured subjects, subjects with lesions of the peripheral nervous system), distinguishing, within patterns observed, defects, primary and secondary , and remuneration. Are then processed hypotheses on the possible therapeutic solutions with particular reference to the orthotics and assistive devices. Of these devices are described characteristics and, in particular, the mechanism of action. Particular attention is paid to the analysis and interpretation of the signs and the process that, starting from the latter, take you through interdisciplinary work including, among other figures, even the fundamental orthotist, the correct choice of the garrison, and after the verification of its effectiveness and utility
