The clinical experiences of dyslexic healthcare students (2008)
Journal Article
Murphy, F. (2008). The clinical experiences of dyslexic healthcare students. Radiography, 15, 341-344. https://doi.org/10.10116/j.radi.2008.06.002This paper reflects on the experiences of healthcare students with dyslexia in order
to raise awareness of the potential challenges for dyslexic student radiographers and their clinical
educators. With widening participation policies it is likely t... Read More about The clinical experiences of dyslexic healthcare students.
The influence of gluteus maximus on transverse plane tibial rotation (2008)
Journal Article
There is a common clinical belief that transverse plane tibial rotation is controlled by the rearfoot. Although distal structures may influence the motion of the tibia, transverse plane tibial rotation could be determined by the proximal hip musculat...

Variation in pelvic morphology may prevent the identification of anterior pelvic tilt (2008)
Journal Article
Pelvic tilt is often quantified using the angle between the horizontal and a line connecting the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) and the posterior superior iliac spine (PSIS). Although this angle is determined by the balance of muscular and liga... Read More about Variation in pelvic morphology may prevent the identification of anterior pelvic tilt.
Measurement system for the evaluation of alternating pressure redistribution mattresses using pressure relief index and tissue perfusion – a preliminary study (2008)
Journal Article
Twiste, M., & Rithalia, S. (2008). Measurement system for the evaluation of alternating pressure redistribution mattresses using pressure relief index and tissue perfusion – a preliminary study. Primary intention, 16(4), 192-198Clinicians who are selecting dynamic support surfaces such as alternating pressure redistribution mattresses (APRMs) for the
prevention and treatment of pressure ulcers are faced with commercial literature that predominantly reports on magnitudes of...

A finite element model to identify electrode influence on current distribution in the skin (2008)
Journal Article

Artificial Organs, 32(8), 639-643. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1525-1594.2008.00615.xDiscomfort experienced during surface functional electrical stimulation (FES) is thought to be partly a result of localised high current density in the skin underneath the stimulating electrode. This paper describes a finite element (FE) model to pre... Read More about A finite element model to identify electrode influence on current distribution in the skin.
An exploration of step time variability on smooth and irregular surfaces in older persons with neuropathy (2008)
Journal Article

Clinical Biomechanics, 23(3), 349-356. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2007.10.004Background. Increased step time variability, particularly on an irregular surface, has been associated with impaired mobility function and a variety of diseases. However the biomechanical necessity, or advantage, of increasing step time variability h...

An instance-based algorithm with auxiliary similarity information for the estimation of gait kinematics from wearable sensors. (2008)
Journal Article
Wearable human movement measurement systems
are increasingly popular as a means of capturing human movement data in real-world situations. Previous work has attempted to estimate segment kinematics during walking fromfoot acceleration and angular ve...
