Abstract

This study aims design and production of an active wrist orthosis which could be used both for the rehabilitation and the continuance of daily and professional activities of patients having a tendon torn or inflammation at elbow location. Active wrist orthosis is designed as an electromechanical device which can work interacting with forearm and wrist. This device will be used to assist the wrist movements of people who should perform excessively repetitive wrist motions due to their profession and will also be used for physical therapy of diseases which are known as tennis and golfer elbow at the medicine literature. The contribution of the proposed study is to realize a mobile and an ergonomic wrist orthosis design which would have an ability of high torque support to the wrist at high speed levels and could be used for the avoidance or the treatment of tendon torn diseases occurring at the elbow location for the ones who should make repetitive wrist movements due to their vocation. The main goal of the study is the design and the production of a device which could be used for the prevention or the treatment of the tendon torns occured at elbow location of the ones who make repetitive wrist movements

Özet

Bu çalışma kapsamında dirsek bölgesinde tendon yırtığı veya inflamasyonu olan hastaların hem rehabilitasyonları için hem de günlük ve mesleki hayat aktivitelerinin devamı için kullanılabilecek bir aktif bilek ortezin tasarımı ve üretimi amaçlanmıştır. Aktif bilek ortezi, ön kol ve bilek ile etkileşim halinde çalışabilen elektromekanik bir cihaz olacak şekilde tasarlanmıştır. Bu cihaz, mesleği gereği gün içerisinde çok fazla tekrarlı bilek hareketleri yapmak zorunda kalan kimselerin bilek hareketlerine yardımcı olmak ve tıp literatüründe tenisçi ve golfçü dirseği olarak bilinen hastalıkların fizik tedavi uygulamaları için kullanılacaktır. Önerilen çalışmanın özgünlüğü, mesleğinden dolayı tekrarlı bilek hareketleri yapmak zorunda kalan kimselerin dirsek bölgelerinde oluşan tendon yırtığı hastalıkların önlenmesi veya tedavisi için kullanılabilecek, bileğe yüksek seviyelerde tork takviyesini yüksek hızlarda sağlayabilecek, mobil ve ergonomik bir bilek ortez tasarımı yapılacak olmasıdır. Çalışmanın temel hedefi tekrarlı bilek hareketi yapan kişilerin dirsek bölgelerinde oluşabilecek tendon yırtıklarının engellenmesi veya tedavisinin kolaylaştırılması için bir cihazın tasarımı ve üretimi olarak belirlenmiştir
