Assistive Orthosis for Paralysis People Using 3d Printing Model

Abstract

Abstract: The Monoplegia is a one type of paralysis. The Monoplegia patients do not do the regularElbow Extension and Flexion activities, because weakens muscle movements, mainly due to nervedamage. This orthosis is used to externally assist patients elbow extension and flexion movements.An elbow extension and flexion assist orthosis is automatic functioning system. When the patientis shaking the fingers, vibration sensor detects the vibration and the device is extending the hand by using Linear actuator and flexion is also done by a same procedure. The prototype is design in 3d printing model which was a make the design lightweight as much possible. Consider incorporating a user-friendly control interface that allows the patient to adjust the level ofassistance or control the device based on their comfort and needs. Implement safety features to prevent sudden or unintended movements that could cause discomfort or injury .Design the orthosis to be easily adjustable to accommodate different arm sizes and shapes. Allow for customization based on the individual's specific range of motion and strength. efficient and lightweight power source, considering the need for mobility and comfort. Optimize the battery lifeto ensure the device can be used throughout the day without frequent recharging. Ensure that the materials used in the 3D printing model are durable, hypoallergenic, and lightweight .Pay attentionto the ergonomic design to maximize comfort during prolonged use. Develop a comprehensive user training program to help patients become familiar with the device and optimize its use. Ensurethat the design complies with relevant medical device regulations and standards to guarantee safetyand efficacy. Collaborate with healthcare professionals, therapists, and end-users to gather feedback and make continuousimprovements to the design. Thus the prototype will help to recoveras soon as possible from the monoplegia condition.
