Evaluating Upper Limb Movement Precision With AuReha in People With One-Sided Motor Impairment

The clinical investigation is designed as a controlled, two-arm, intra-patient, non-randomized interventional study aimed at assessing the capabilities of the AuReha system in detecting upper limb movement precision in patients with unilateral proprioceptive impairment. The comparison will be conducted within the same subject, between the healthy limb and the impaired limb, through the execution of proprioceptive exercises in an open kinetic chain. The biomechanical parameters collected will include movement precision, trunk stability, compensatory movements, and joint range of motion. In addition to the quantitative analysis, qualitative data will also be collected regarding usability, wearability, and user experience of the system through questionnaires administered to both patients and healthcare professionals. The study will be conducted at the Shoulder Team Outpatient Clinic in Forlì, enrolling approximately 52 patients.

Evaluation of the Biomechanics of Crowding and the Energetic Cost of Endurance Runners Unilateral Transtibial Amputees.

Transtibial amputation accounts for 3,700 cases per year in France. Athletes can use sport blades made of carbon plate for improved energy restitution. Sports blades are adjusted according to the manufacturer's recommendations and the subjective experience of the ortho-prosthetist and patient. These adjustments are designed to optimize performance and comfort while reducing the risk of injury. This risk is all the greater when asymmetries between the healthy and affected limbs are large, exposing the healthy limb to large and repeated reaction forces.
