It serves to know the physical fitness state and to identify skills that can be improved with a specific exercise program. There are few works that relate the results of these tests and their interaction with the efficiency in performing the fundamental motor gesture. In this work, 40 athletes are evaluated through tests of body composition, anaerobic power, balance control and isokinetic muscle strength. The results of the evaluations are grouped in what is proposed as a characteristic vector of the athlete and a new EK index is proposed to evaluate the efficiency of the front kick (Cut). The athlete characteristic vector is used as input values in an artificial neural network (ANN). The EK index is proposed to stratify the output of the ANN, by ordering the athletes and classify them into 4 levels of physical aptitude: perfectible, average, good and optimum. To validate the ANN, a linear regression analysis is used, obtaining a value of R=0.91 and a classification of 100%. This high percentage is due to the homogeneity of the sample as they are high-performance athletes.","PeriodicalId":197762,"journal":{"name":"2022 Global Medical Engineering Physics Exchanges/ Pan American Health Care Exchanges (GMEPE/PAHCE)","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124362965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the selection of these materials can have mechanical implications that affect the performance of the exoskeleton in the chosen application. This paper proposes a testing protocol to assess the mechanical and structural features of a prototype upper limb robotic exoskeleton using an optical motion capture system as the primary measurement instrument. In addition to the protocol, a literature review is presented, laying the ground for the theoretical development of the mechanical evaluation for prototypes. Also, the materials used concerning the evaluation technologies required for data collection and assessment of the devices are described. The development and future application of this protocol will enable the identification of the relevant motion parameters on the exoskeleton prototype, the changes that its structure may experience due to the use of the flexible materials, and the effectiveness of the mechanical support provided in the upper limb. Finally, the proposed protocol can be extended to other types of robotic exoskeletons built with similar materials, regardless of their final application, extending its applicability to other study cases.","PeriodicalId":197762,"journal":{"name":"2022 Global Medical Engineering Physics Exchanges/ Pan American Health Care Exchanges (GMEPE/PAHCE)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115471249","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a previous study, in Puno city at 3800 m.a.s.l., it was found an error above 15.0% (minimum tolerance) in the tidal volume, for which a negative correction of 25.0% was applied. In the present study, a Masi ventilator was transported to Chachapoyas city, at an altitude of 2400 m.a.s.l. to continue evaluating the effect of altitude on the parameters of the device. Once there, ventilators were acclimated and calibrated. Tidal volume, inspiration-expiration ratio (I:E), positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), peak inspiratory flow (PIF) and peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) were tested, and the maximum percentages errors presented were 13.5% and 13.9% in the tidal volume and the PIF, respectively. For that reason, although errors were under 15.0%, an update of the software of Masi was needed, applying a negative correction of 14.0%. Then, the parameters were tested again obtaining results with errors below 6.0% and 8.0% in volume controlled an pressure controlled ventilation modes, respectively. These results allowed the use of the Masi ventilator at ICU area. Finally, a software update for the Masi ventilator is performed by applying a linear equation that relates altitudes and percentage errors tested.","PeriodicalId":197762,"journal":{"name":"2022 Global Medical Engineering Physics Exchanges/ Pan American Health Care Exchanges (GMEPE/PAHCE)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132315248","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Oncological hyperthermia is a treatment where the temperature of the tumor rises between 40°C - 45°C for a time between 60 min. - 90 min. Hyperthermia Treatment Planning (HTP) is used to predict energy absorption patterns and temperature distributions, through a specific configuration of the applicators. Therefore, it is necessary to know the position of the radiofrequency (RF) applicators that will be used. In this work the coordinates (x, y, z & θ) of the vertices of two non-functional RF applicators used in the emulation of a hyperthermia treatment were obtained through a 3D reconstruction based on photographs. 250 images were used to obtain the 3D reconstruction using the algorithm Structure from Motion (SfM). Obtaining a minimum error rate of 17.35% between the actual distance of the applicators and the 3D reconstruction of these. Subsequently, in Matlab, the vertices coordinates (x, y, z & θ) of both applicators were obtained in approximately 5 minutes. This information will be used in a modeling software to know the interaction of the energy provided by the applicators to aid in a future implementation of a HTP.","PeriodicalId":197762,"journal":{"name":"2022 Global Medical Engineering Physics Exchanges/ Pan American Health Care Exchanges (GMEPE/PAHCE)","volume":"2012 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132168838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This project intends to evaluate the possibility of the impregnation of copper particles as an active element to eliminate viruses and bacteria, which in contact with cotton conventional masks have a survival rate of up to 72 h. In contact with copper particles, those microorganisms survive, approximately, for 1 h. Therefore, the main objective of this work was to evaluate a production process of impregnation of copper particles in nonwoven fabric (TNT). To do so, we isolated copper particles from copper sulfate solution with constant heating, simultaneously impregnating pieces of TNT cut from commercial disposable protective masks. We performed SEM and EDS analysis to evaluate the impregnation and particle sizes. Visually, the pieces were partially impregnated which was confirmed by the SEM images where one can see only some fibers covered by the particles. Also, it is possible to notice that the size of the particles was at microscale with some agglomeration. The EDS confirmed 1.1% by mass of copper particles in the sample. The procedure was easy to follow and at a low-cost being, therefore, possible to be implemented after some parameter adjustments.","PeriodicalId":197762,"journal":{"name":"2022 Global Medical Engineering Physics Exchanges/ Pan American Health Care Exchanges (GMEPE/PAHCE)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123651343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
