Specialized Care Centers and Settings-II

1.1K
Rural Health Centers
Rural health centers are specialized care facilities in remote locations with very few medical personnel. The primary care providers who run the centers are mostly Registered Nurse Practitioners. Here, emergency treatment is provided to critically ill or injured patients before they are transferred to the closest hospital. Fortunately, due to advancement in technology, many rural healthcare facilities and professionals have easy access to diagnostic and treatment...

Integrated Healthcare System

2.2K
An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Restorative Care01:19

Restorative Care

2.3K
Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Tertiary Healthcare System01:21

Tertiary Healthcare System

2.1K
Specialized care provided over an extended period is called tertiary care. Usually, a primary or secondary care physician will refer a patient to tertiary care. A patient's maximum physical and mental function is restored in tertiary care, which is caused due to the impact of a chronic illness or condition. Tertiary care aims to achieve the highest level of functioning possible while managing chronic illness. For example, a patient who falls and fractures their hip will need secondary care...

An interdisciplinary team includes many healthcare professionals working together and utilizing their skills, knowledge, and expertise to provide holistic and quality patient care. Here are a few more healthcare professionals.
Physical Therapist
A physical therapist (PT) aims to restore function or prevent additional impairment in a patient following an injury or disease. Massage, heat, cold, water, sonar waves, exercises, and electrical stimulation are some treatments used by PTs to treat...

    Area of Science:

    • Biomechanics
    • Robotics
    • Rehabilitation Engineering

    Background:

    • Posturography platforms have historically offered limited degrees of freedom and high costs.
    • Commercial systems often lack the flexibility required for personalized training protocols and advanced research.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a versatile, robotized posturography platform (DORIS) that overcomes the limitations of commercial systems.
    • To enable personalized training for equilibrium and gait, applicable to both research and clinical settings.

    Main Methods:

    • A Stewart platform utilizing linear actuators and an integrated load cell in each actuator was designed.
    • Position and force control were implemented for versatile movement and reactive subject interaction.
    • The DORIS platform was integrated with motion analysis, EMG systems, and virtual reality via TCP/IP protocol.

    Main Results:

    • The DORIS platform offers a multipurpose range of movement and reactive interaction capabilities.
    • Integration with other systems allows manipulation of visual, vestibular, and plantar foot pressure inputs.
    • Full control over platform movement and human dynamic interaction was achieved.

    Conclusions:

    • The DORIS platform provides a flexible and advanced solution for posturography research and physical rehabilitation.
    • It facilitates innovative approaches by enabling precise control and multi-sensory integration.
    • This technology addresses an ongoing need in the strongly investigated field of balance and gait analysis.
