Inleiding: Virtual reality (VR) wordt binnen de fysiotherapie onderzocht op welke wijze het toepasbaar zou kunnen zijn. VR is effectief gebleken bij een gevarieerd aanbod van pijn- en niet-aangeboren hersenletselpatiënten. De relatie tussen de toepassing van VR en nekklachten is nog niet zorgvuldig onderzocht, …

Modifiable (biomechanical and neuromuscular) anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury risk factors have been identified in laboratory settings. These risk factors were subsequently used in ACL injury prevention measures. Due to the lack of ecological validity, the use of on-field data in the ACL injury …

Following the signature of the Paris Climate Agreement, governments developed policy to limit the anticipated warming of the climate. For the construction industry, this mostly involves economic use of raw materials and reducing power consumption in the production and use of buildings. In order to achieve …

The flexible strain sensors have been a topic of interest for multiple studies in the past years. These sensors are soft, bendable mechanisms, which can be applied to substrates through printing or other means. They can indicate longitudinal strain through resistance change, which means that they can …

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to determine the degree of ROM limitations of extremities, joints and planes of motion after burns and its prevalence over time. METHOD: The database of a longitudinal multicenter cohort study in the Netherlands (2011-2012) was used. From patients with acute burns …

Momenteel zijn behandelingen voor hielklachten veelal gericht op inlegzolen en fysiotherapeutische oefeningen. Deze oplossingen bieden weliswaar verlichting bij het lopen maar behandelen de hielklachten zelf echter niet. In deze retrospectieve studie is het loopgedrag van 63 patiënten met (chronische) …

Background: Development of more effective interventions for nonspecific chronic low back pain (LBP), requires a robust theoretical framework regarding mechanisms underlying the persistence of LBP. Altered movement patterns, possibly driven by pain-related cognitions, are assumed to drive pain persistence, …

In wheelchair sports, the use of Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) has proven to be one of the most accessible ways for ambulatory measurement of wheelchair kinematics. A three-IMU configuration, with one IMU attached to the wheelchair frame and two IMUs on each wheel axle, has previously shown accurate …

Advanced cryotherapy has been widely used in post-op rehabilitation. However, its effectiveness on post-Total Knee Arthroplasty symptoms remains uncertain. Following this procedure, several factors are present in the recovery phase. Pain, swelling, inflammation, reduced range of motion are among them. …
