Abstract:
(text automatically translated from Italian) The aim of the lesson is to introduce the tools and biomechanical models for quantitative analysis of human movement, in its components kinematics, dynamics and electromyographic. Also describes the main variables that are useful in setting the therapeutic treatment / rehabilitation and monitoring of its effects. Finally, some applications are illustrated instrumental analysis of the movement in the following areas: project development of innovative orthotic for the journey in paraplegia, analysis of the biomechanical effects of the use of orthotics AFO in walking, analysis of the direct and indirect effects of guardians of the hand in treatment of focal dystonia of the upper limb. Finally, you will commonly used protocols in the laboratories of the Center IRCCS S. Maria Nascente for setting the therapeutic treatment / rehabilitation and for monitoring its effects.
