Research Abstract |
It has been reported that elderly and handicapped feel difficult to complete the motion of putting on and off clothing. In this study, we aimed to analyze motions involved in putting on and off jackets and front opening shirts to solve this problem. The putting on and off motions were recorded by digital video cameras and analyzed with the 3D motion analysis system. A new method using LED marker was developed for this study. (1)Subjects were 76 healthy elderly women and young 10 women. As the result of observation, putting on motion could be divided into six steps. The times for each step were measured and loci of their arms were compared among the three types of jackets. As the result, a diamond-shaped gusset in the underarm area makes it easier to put the arm through the sleeve for both age groups. The mean time to prepare to put the second wrist through the armhole for the jacket which has two pleats added to the back was significantly shorter than that for the basic jacket among the elderly women. This suggested that a wider shoulder width eases the motion of putting the wrist through the armhole, especially for people whose active range of motion of the acromioclavicular is small. (2)The subjects were 19 elderly women, and 37 healthy young people. The movement of their dominant hand's shoulder and elbow were limited by taping for young subjects. After this taping, the putting on and off motions were different, and become similar to that of physically handicapped person. It suggested that this method was suitable for simulation of motion analysis for handicapped person. As the result of motion analysis, handicapped person's process to dress and undress is also determined by active range of motion of arm.
