Learning outcomes

At the end of the teaching, the student will have to prove his/her i) knowledge of the applications of innovative technologies based on electromechanical and robotic devices for lower and upper limb, and ii) knowledge of the principles of employment and use of devices for the analysis of space-time, kinetic and kinematic parameters of movement based on the use of surface polyelectromyography, force sensors and motion capture in the rehabilitation field.

Program

The teaching program will focus on the following main points:
Part 1: Electromechanical technologies for rehabilitation
- definition of electromechanical and robotic devices for rehabilitation;
- clinical rationale;
- history and evolution;
- practical examples and devices currently marketed.
Part 2: Technologies for motion analysis
- definition of motion analysis;
- clinical rationale;
- history and evolution of technologies for the analysis of movement in the clinical setting;
- biomechanical measurements of clinical interest and measurement methodologies;
- analysis of the movement of the lower limb and upper limb: similarities, differences and criticalities;
- practical examples and case studies analysis.
