During mid stance the peak height of the hip is seen to be higher on the prosthetic limb than in a non amputee. This is a result of the reduced flexion of the prosthetic knee. Also the characteristic of the prosthetic foot influences the peak height too. After contralateral foot contact an abrupt transition from hip extension to flexion is seen. In the late stance, an eccentric hip flexor activity is seen as compared to normal. This inturn generates higher hip flexor moment. This greater moment further

Introduction Hip hop as a ding an sich is marked by some confusion. Consider the name; is it "hip hop," "hip-hop" or "hiphop"? You will see all three used in titles in this bibliography. Hip hop is, at the same time, a cultural phenomenon that developed in the late 70's in the projects in Brooklyn and the Bronx, and a musical style from that phenomenon. Nevertheless, hip hop has become a pervasive element of popular culture, as witnessed by this bibliography. There are hip hop

Hip arthroplasty is the replacement of the hip joint with a prosthesis, and is one of the most common reconstructive operations (Huo et al 2008). Hip arthroplasty may be performed when irreversible damage has occurred to the joint; this damage often causes pain, dysfunction and reduced quality of life. The pre-operative nursing considerations begin with patient education. This should begin at the time the decision is made to have the surgical procedure performed. It is important that the patient

Hip Hops Redemption Hip hop music is described as, “a subculture especially of inner-city youths who are typically devotees of rap music”. (Merriam.com) Hip hop music is one of the most listened to genres in history. Hip-hop music started in the mid 1970’s, but some say that it started much earlier. Many people today would argue that Hip Hop is disgraceful now a days, and that it has no positive message given. Me personally, I would agree since the days have changed over time. I could also argue

Introduction A hip fracture is a fracture of the upper part of your thigh bone (femur). What are the causes? This condition is caused by a direct blow (trauma) to the side of your hip. This is usually the result of a fall but can occur in other circumstances, such as an automobile accident. What increases the risk? You are more likely to develop this condition if: You have an unsteady walking pattern (gait) and you have conditions that contribute to poor balance, such as Parkinson's disease or dementia

is the Hips joint and how does it move safely? The hip joint is a ball and socket joint, technically referred to as ‘synovial’ joint, because the Head of the Femur, is attached with ligaments. Furthermore, the synovial joint is held together to the socket of the hip with a strong fibred sleeve, the Capsule and the joint is moved by the muscles in the hip such as the Piriformis, Gluteus Minimus and Superior gemellus, which allows the hip to move in a rotation motion. In addition, the hip is a very

People with hip dysplasia may be able to have periacetabular osteotomy(PAO) surgery other than a full hip replacement to correct the dysplastic hip. These findings could appeal to individuals who might question if they have hip dysplasia. It could also appeal to the individuals that have developed hip dysplasia and are questioning if they could benefit more from a hip replacement or other methods. My interest in this topic began a few years ago during a recreational soccer season. My hips both were

Total hip replacement or THR is a clinically effective procedure for the treatment of pain and disability that arises due to the final stage arthritis of the hip. THR is prescribed for the patients who do not respond to the options that are non surgical, self management, education of the patient, physical therapy, acupuncture, and exercise. ( Pivec. et.al,2012). Numerous procedures , a range of implant designs are available and it is the surgeon who has to decide upon as to which type of fixation

Matthew Potzler Term Paper MSE 561 Hip Prostheses The hip joint is used in everyday life. The most common need for replacement comes from this wear and tear of the joint resulting in osteoarthritis, necessitating a total hip replacement. Part of this replacement involves selecting an implant of proper material and size to fit the patient, with more and more implants heading toward metal on metal load bearing surfaces to increase life of the implant. The implant lasts an average of 15 years before
