Summary

The goal of this project was to develop several surgical planning tools taking into account both the anatomy and kinematics of the patient’s joint. We intended to continue and extended our previous research works by integrating them into a 3D surgical planning solution, called ArthroPlanner, which could be used in clinical routine and could thus directly benefit patients.

This project mainly aimed at developing solutions for the dynamic planning of the hip and shoulder and at extending our work to the knee.

Summary

Shoulder instability is a common pathology in young or athletic adult that results in chronic dislocations or subluxations. When multiple dislocations episodes occur, surgical treatment is indicated. But this treatment really stabilizes the joint or only prevents it to dislocate?

The objective of this study was to investigate and compare the shoulder stability in patients with anterior instability by performing a dynamic motion capture analysis before and after surgical treatment. The results of this study provided a better understanding of this disease, and evaluated the effectiveness of the proposed surgical treatment.

Summary

Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is a rare condition that involves pain in the neck and shoulder, numbness and tingling of the fingers. It happens when the nerves or blood vessels are compressed in the thoracic outlet which is the area between the rib cage and clavicle.

The goal of this study was to better understand certain causes of TOS by performing a dynamic simulation of the shoulder complex. Repetitive arm and shoulder movements, as well as anatomical defects can play a role in the development of TOS. In this study, motion capture and medical imaging (CT, MRI) were combined to improve assessment of this condition in symptomatic patients.

Summary

Strengthening of shoulder muscles in rehabilitation protocols and sport practice can be achieved by a wide range of different exercises and several types of technique. In presence of a rotator cuff lesion, articular cartilage pathology or instability, recommendations for design of a shoulder strength training protocol aim at avoiding or minimizing subacromial impingement and stress on the articular cartilages or labrum. Very limited objective data is at disposable to emit such recommendations.

The goal of this study was to capture and simulate 30 to 50 rehabilitation exercises to study the impact on the glenohumeral joint (e.g. cartilage’s compression, incidence of subacromial impingement) and rotator cuff (e.g. tendon lengthening of the subscapularis, supraspinatus, infraspinatus and teres minor). Ultimately, this study will better target rehabilitation exercises of the shoulder.

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.
