Design of a soft robotic pneumatic actuator for elbow physical therapy

We present an innovative and novel device for home assistance elbow physiotherapy. As our end user has rigidity in superior limbs, our device care about miming the natural flexion-extension movement of the elbow, in order to provide an automatized therapy. Post-stroke patients often suffer from lack...

description We present an innovative and novel device for home assistance elbow physiotherapy. As our end user has rigidity in superior limbs, our device care about miming the natural flexion-extension movement of the elbow, in order to provide an automatized therapy. Post-stroke patients often suffer from lack in muscle movement due to deoxygenation of the inferior neurons resulting in hemiplegia or hemiparesis. Our goal was to provide a device that can ease the implementation of home therapy, so patients can easily increase their therapy hours.We focus in elbow disability as it is one of the most common disability after an CVA, and because is the upper joint that most restricts daily activities. Answering to this specific need, we present Flexor. Flexor is an assistive device, completely flexible and portable, composed of two soft robotic pneumatic actuators capable of automatically doing the elbow flexion and extension movements. Actuators were made of an elastic material, commercially known as Ecoflex. Each actuator is responsible of one movement: flexion and extension. The device can perform two therapy modes: acute hemiplegia and acute hemiparesis differing in terms of speed and strength. The market size was estimated in 438.451 individuals. The product price is 150.000 COP and for the first sales year we expect to reached a 2% market shear offering the user the opportunity to increase therapy hours without the need of hiring extra hours of a physiotherapist, or assisting more days at week to a rehabilitation center, and therefore increasing the probability of having a complete rehabilitation and decreasing the rehabilitation time. The last design proved to exert the force needed to fully bend the elbow joint and the torque need to perform the extension movement

Teniendo en cuenta que el usuario del dispositivo presenta rigidez en los miembros superiores, nuestro dispositivo imita el movimiento natural de flexión-extensión, para así lograr una terapia automática. Algunos pacientes que han sufrido de un accidente cerebro vascular (ACV), padecen de hemiplegía o hemiparesis. El objetivo del presente proyecto fue desarrollar un dispositivo que facilite la implementación de terapia en casa, para así aumentar el número de horas de rehabilitación. El proyecto fue enfocado en la articulación del codo, debido a la alta frecuencia en la afectación del codo de pacientes que han sufrido de un ACV. Respondiendo a esta necesidad, presentamos Flexor: Un dispositvo de asistencia capaz de realizar flexión y extensión de manera automática. Se caracteriza por ser flexible y portátil, esta compuesto por dos actuadores neumáticos fabricados con un polímero flexible conocido comercialmente como Ecoflex. Cada actuador es responsable de uno de los movimientos: Flexión y extensión. El dispositivo presenta dos modos de terapia, hemiplegía agua y hemparesis aguda que difieren en términos de velocidad y fuerza. El tamaño del mercado fue estimado en 438.451 individuos. El precio del producto en el mercado será de 150.000 COP y para el primer año de ventas se espera un market shear del 2%. Con este dispositivo se ofrece la oportunidad al usuario de aumentar el número de horas de terapia de manera fácil desde la comodidad del hogar. El diseño final es capaz de superar la fuerza necesaria para flexionar completamente el codo y el torque necesario para realizar el movimiento de extensión."--Tomado del Formato de Documento de GradoIngeniero BiomédicoPregrado65 hojasapplication/pdfengUniversidad de los AndesIngeniería BiomédicaFacultad de IngenieríaDepartamento de Ingeniería Biomédicainstname:Universidad de los Andesreponame:Repositorio Institucional SénecaDesign of a soft robotic pneumatic actuator for elbow physical therapyTrabajo de grado - Pregradoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesishttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_7a1fhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Texthttp://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/TPRehabilitación médicaFisioterapiaCodosAccidente cerebrovascularIngenieríaPublication7136bea3-d8a6-43c5-b5c9-6b4af41cf94cvirtual::8521-17136bea3-d8a6-43c5-b5c9-6b4af41cf94cvirtual::8521-1TEXTu806745.pdf.txtu806745.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain128629https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/faddea67-5daf-4a9a-a4dc-8f7e2ddc76e9/download1471b43145ae715a2aa3e883a4f06cfdMD54ORIGINALu806745.pdfapplication/pdf6612357https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/ff5309fb-c66a-483f-8276-0d01cea94016/download11b690befa152dcd5d40bea12e343a21MD51THUMBNAILu806745.pdf.jpgu806745.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg5464https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/bd0f4a4f-35cc-4530-90e0-981418e5453f/downloadb909bb5b5fbc363648bd77425491fb80MD551992/38966oai:repositorio.uniandes.edu.co:1992/389662024-03-13 13:42:01.089http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/open.accesshttps://repositorio.uniandes.edu.coRepositorio institucional Sénecaadminrepositorio@uniandes.edu.co
