Upper limb activity in myoelectric prosthesis users is biased towards the intact limb and appears unrelated to goal-directed task performance (2018)
Journal Article
Chadwell, A., Kenney, L., Granat, M., Thies, S., Head, J., Galpin, A., & Baker, R. (2018). Upper limb activity in myoelectric prosthesis users is biased towards the intact limb and appears unrelated to goal-directed task performance. Scientific reports, 8, #11084. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-29503-6

Studies of the effectiveness of prosthetic hands involve assessing user performance on functional tasks in the lab/clinic, sometimes combined with self-report of real-world use. In this paper we compare real-world upper limb activity between a group...

Design and construction of a new partial foot prosthesis based on high-pressure points in a patient with diabetes with transmetatarsal amputation : a technical note (2018)
Journal Article
Zarezadeh, F., Arazpour, M., Bahramizadeh, M., Mardani, M., & Head, J. (2018). Design and construction of a new partial foot prosthesis based on high-pressure points in a patient with diabetes with transmetatarsal amputation : a technical note. Journal of Prosthetics and Orthotics, 30(2), 108-113. https://doi.org/10.1097/JPO.0000000000000183

Introduction: Diabetic foot ulcers are significant complications of diabetes that can lead to amputation. Partial foot prostheses can be used to redistribute the plantar pressure on the residual limb to alleviate local pressures. The aim of this stud...

Design and analysis of an original powered foot clearance creator mechanism for walking in patients with spinal cord injury (2018)
Journal Article
Maleki, M., Badri, S., Shayestehepour, H., Arazpour, M., Farahmand, F., Mousavi, M., …Mardani, M. (2019). Design and analysis of an original powered foot clearance creator mechanism for walking in patients with spinal cord injury. Disability and Rehabilitation: Assistive Technology, 14(4), 333-337. https://doi.org/10.1080/17483107.2018.1447610

Background: The aim of this study was to assess the performance of an original powered foot clearance creator (PFCC) mechanism worn in conjunction with an isocentric reciprocal gait orthosis (IRGO) and evaluate its effect on trunk compensatory moveme...
