Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed a mechanical model of knee joint with dysfunctions, which can be used as a teaching material for acquiring skills for manual joint range of motion exercises by Physical Therapists and Occupational Therapists. The flow of development is (1) limb measurement experiment, (2) constructing the command value of the servo motor that drives (3) from the measured value obtained in (1), (3) constructing the hardware of the affected limb knee model, (4) verification of the system operation. As a result, it is possible to create a servomotor command value from the angle-torque diagram obtained in the affected limb measurement experiment, and adjust the strength of muscle spasm and the feeling of termination in the final flexion region by changing the software mode. We have developed a knee model for affected limbs.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は正常から逸脱した機能障害のある膝関節の機械モデル(患肢膝モデル)を開発するものである.開発された患肢膝モデルは理学療法士・作業療法士を志す学生が徒手関節可動域練習を実習するうえで有益な教材となりうる.患肢膝モデルを用いた徒手関節可動域練習の効果として,より実際の手技に近い技能の習得,さらには臨床に就く際の導入の容易性などの利点がある.これらは,実践的な実技教育を可能とし,現状では不足している即戦力となる理学療法士・作業療法士の輩出に,ひいてはリハビリテーションに寄与することが社会的意義となる.
