Shoulder kinematic modeling

Project Info

Start date:
June 2012

End date:
March 2014

Funding:
La Tour Hospital

Coordinator:
Artanim

Summary

The shoulder has the widest range of motion of any joint in the body, but at the cost of inherent instability causing pain and functional disability. To better understand the mechanisms involved in shoulder stability, an in-depth analysis of the shoulder kinematics is instrumental. Therefore, the project aimed at developing a new kinematic model to reliably evaluate the three-dimensional motion of the shoulder based on motion capture. To set up and evaluate the kinematic model, a clinical study involving tennis players was performed.

The results opened up new possibilities to orthopedic surgeons in order to improve assessment and treatment of patients with shoulder functional abnormalities.
