    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO DEVELOPING NEUROREHABILITATION DEVICES

    Written from an engineering perspective, this solutions-oriented reference enables readers to fully understand the fundamental principles and terminology of rehabilitation medicine and successfully apply them to the development of human neurorehabilitation devices.

    With this detailed reference, readers will be able to develop state-of-the-art design, measurement, and control systems and solve the highly specialized problems inherent in biomedical devices used in the treatment and recovery of individuals suffering from neuro-muscular impairments and traumatic brain, spinal cord, and peripheral injuries.

    The Engineering Data Necessary to Develop Next Generation Neurorehabilitation Devices

    • Introduction to Rehabilitation Medicine
    • Objectives of Rehabilitation
    • State-of-the-Art in Neurorehabilitation
    • Neuro-Diagnosis
    • Neuro-Controls
    • Intelligent Knowledge-Based Neurorehabilitation
    • Future Enhancements and Considerations in Neurorehabilitation
    • The Smart Gait Emulator for Effective Neurorehabilitation

    Long description:

    Publisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product.




    Debilitating neuromuscular disorders and traumatic brain, spinal cord or peripheral injuries have a devastating effect on those who suffer from them. Written from an engineering perspective, and based on a course taught by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Neurorehabilitation Devices first helps the designer to better understand and formulate design, measurement and control systems for biomedical devices used in the treatment and recovery of people suffering from these disorders. Just some of the topics covered in this book are: methods to allow an amputee to control a powered artificial arm by means of electrical signals generated by contractions of muscles of the residual limb in combination with motor nerve activity from peripheral nerves, as well as the development of new technologies to use electrical stimulation to treat the hyperactive bladder, to electrically induce bowel movement and defecation, and to develop methods for selective stimulation of nerve fibres.
