Published: November 2022

Introduction: When the upper teeth lingually contact the lower teeth, this is known as a crossbite. Both unilateral and bilateral crossbites are possible. An entire arch of teeth or a single tooth may be misaligned. Numerous solutions have been put forth to address this issue. The upper arch will be expanded during treatment, and the lower arch will also be corrected. It is imperative to address the underlying cause of the crossbite, such as respiratory issues or a habit of sucking.Aim: This study's objective was to determine the number of patients at a dental hospital with crossbites.Materials and methods: The Saveetha Dental College's Digital Information Archiving Software (DIAS) was used to gather the data. The information was gathered between January 2020 and December 2020. Patients who had undergone a clinical evaluation were included in the data. Excel was used to tabulate and enter the data, and the SPSS package software was used to analyse it.Results: 1030 patients out of 10048 had crossbites. 5.6% of cases of posterior crossbite and 4.5% of cases of anterior crossbite were reported. Angles class 1 malocclusion was present in a sizable percentage of crossbite patients (83.01%). It was discovered that 89.4% of patients with single tooth crossbite and 79.5% of those had unilateral crossbite.Conclusion: Within the constraints of the study, we discovered that 10.2% of cases of crossbite were widespread, with posterior crossbite being more common than anterior. In order to ascertain the prevalence of crossbite, study is required because epidemiological data varied according to location.

Authors: Arjavi Pakhan  , Vishnu Vardhan
Published: November 2022

Recognizing actions from film clips or images is a difficult procedure due to difficulties such as crowded backgrounds, occlusions, differences in scale, viewpoint, colour, and look.Various technologies, such as surveillance cameras, human - machine interface, and robotics for human activity description, requires a simultaneous action recognition system. A standard colour camera can identify a moving silhouette in the foreground, but precise assessment of human movements is difficult due to lack of complete three dimensional knowledge of the scene(1). Cameras like RGB-D can combine a depth map based on a colour image and the reflection of an infra red sensor light; they can help in solving the problem. The main aim in rehabilitation is correctness of a movement may be certified without being exceedingly accurate. The precise of skeleton estimation wasalso tested in order to better comprehend the potential clinical applications.

A Review on Electro acupuncture
Authors: Tanushree Deshmukh  , Pratik Phansopkar
Published: November 2022

Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese treatment for pain. Acupuncture is a 3000-year-oldtraditional therapy from China. Electroacupuncture is similar to traditional acupuncture in that it uses electrical stimulation. It works similarly to orthodox acupuncture in that it excites the same regions. As with conventional acupuncture, needles are inserted at designated points on the body. The needles are then coupled to a gadget that leverages tiny clips to establish a consistent electric pulse. These devices alter the frequency and strength of the impulses based on the condition being treated. Electroacupuncture uses two or more needles at the same time to allow impulses to pass from one needle to the next. This can be performed by using a standard TENS machine attached to the needles via cables and crocodile clips by using commercially available electroacupuncture machines.

Authors: PRANALI PACHKHEDE  , RASHMI WALKE
Published: November 2022

Stroke is a serious cerebrovascular disease characterized by sudden and acute onset and rapid neurological deficits, which is the world’s leading cause of disability and the second leading cause of death, leaving 80% of patients having varying degrees of lifetime neurological deficits. As the global aging problem is getting worse, the positive correlation between stroke and age means that the incidence of stroke will only continue to rise. Stroke incidence is also trending toward even younger patients due to factors such as irregular work life and infrequent rest, a growing sense of pressure and anxiety, poor eating habits, and many other reasons. Hemiplegia is one of the most common symptoms of stroke and significantly affects the patient’s quality of life by reducing their ability to perform activities of daily living. While the rehabilitation of hemiplegic stroke patients has commanded considerable attention in society and medicine, a severe shortage of rehabilitation therapists leads to inconsistent traditional rehabilitation training results. Thus, new treatments borne out of interdisciplinary medicine and engineering methods offer the potential to provide superior care for hemiplegic stroke patients. Such methods can not only promote the recovery of the patient by stimulating nerve remodeling, but also reduce physician workload. Bioinstruments use a variety of measurement modalities that are combined in a robotic hardware-based real-time acquisition and control environment and interpreted with the help of a computational model.

The removal by surgery of a limb (arm or leg) or other body part because of injury or disease, such as diabetes or cancer.Below-knee and above amputation are the most commonly performed major amputations. Below-knee amputations may be carried out using either a long posterior flap or skewed flaps. Successful use of prostheses after lower-limb amputation (LLA) depends on undergoing physiotherapy and rehabilitation both physically and psychologically. Lower extremity (LE) amputation patients who use prostheses have gait asymmetries and altered limb loading and movement strategies when ambulating. Subsequent secondary conditions are believed to be associated with gait deviations and lead to long-term complications that impact function and quality of life as a result.

Cerebellar ataxia can be induced by a variety of factors, and symptoms include a lack of coordination in one's balance and cadence, extremities, as well as eye movements. Cerebellar ataxia leads to cerebellar dysfunction with impaired balance and shows Romberg’s sign positive as assisted by the therapist. Suspension therapy is given to bear patients’ weight and improve their gait by supporting their bodies. Treadmill training to assist gait speed, gait endurance, and step length of the patient. Rehabilitation techniques are used to control balance and coordination. As a result Gait variability is common and can be caused by a union of equilibrium issues, a lack of synchronization between the limbs, postural activity, and leg movement facilitation. The unprejudiced study is to ascertain the potential of assistive and rehabilitative technology in cerebellar ataxia. This study was taken from different data sources here four databases were used for searching the last fifteen years of research articles. Here articles for cerebellar ataxia on assistive and rehabilitation were chosen for study. Assistive techniques like bruce protocol, treadmill, and suspension therapy are useful in various cerebral dysfunctional conditions, but this study focuses on cerebellar ataxia.

This is a brief research on the frozen shoulder, which is discribe by discomfort & rigidity involving the shoulder joint. This specific aetiology about frozen shoulder is unspecifed, & the some people's illnesses might linger for years. Treatment techniques differ according on the phase for demonstration, patient characteristics, with physician selection. Thses study provides so synopsis of the clinical demonstration of frozen shoulder as well as an evaluation of the most recent data regarding the use of electrotherapy as a modality and conservative disease therapy alternatives. Over the last the use of ultrasonography in orthopaedics has evolved during the last 30 years. Smaller devices with higher quality and better transducers have become more affordable as ultrasonography has advanced. In the shoulder and elbow, ultrasound diagnostic and therapeutic uses have extended imaging possibilities and given alternatives to surgical therapy. Ultrasonography is a dynamic technology that allows for rapid diagnostic evaluation for clinical correlation and may be utilised for serial testing and image guiding during therapeutic operations. This imaging modality is exceedingly reliable and accurate, and it has the potential to remove the need for costly imaging referrals, particularly in locations where sophisticated imaging is not frequently available.

Burn injuries, especially severe burns, triggers immune and inflammation response, disturbances of metabolism and distributive type of shock, all of this can be said as hard to treat and may lead to cause multiple organ failure. The fact that the injury not only effects physical health but also mental health his mental health and quality of life is critical. As a result, people with burn injuries cannot be deemed recovered if wounds have healed; rather, burn injuries cause long-term fundamental changes that must be focused in order to improve quality of life. As a result, burn care providers encounter a variety of issues, including managing acute and critical care, long-term care, and rehabilitation. Hand is the most commonly injured body part out of all accidents that are work related , ranks third of all workplace injuries and necessitating surgical and lengthy recovery. Hand burns make it difficult to function. The rehabilitation process has benefited from the usage of virtual reality (VR). LMC is a form of virtual reality game that uses new technology to provide biofeedback and training for fine motor function and functional skills. According to this review paper, leap motion training will enable hand burns patient to enhance finger mobility, reduce scar thickness, and improve hand function along with enhancing quality of life of patient. Although improvement in condition depends on severity of burn but this gadget proved to be a boon for hand rehab. on burn population. . Finally in conclusion of review it can be said that leap motion training may aid patients with hand burns in increasing finger range of motion, reducing scar thickness, and improving hand function.
Assistive and Rehabilitation Technology in Osteoarthritis of Knee

Published: November 2022

Osteoarthritis is a prevalent ailment that affects the aged and is one of the leading causes of disability. Knee OA is caused by a number of factors, including elderly, weight, and joint injury caused by repetitive actions like squatting and kneeling. Several factors contribute to knee OA, including cytokines, leptin, and mechanical stressors. Assistive Devices can help not only with the knee pain and stiffness, but also with mobility and individuality. Joint moment measurements provide an objective biomechanical assessment of knee joint load in osteoarthritis (KOA). Wearable sensors paired with machine learning approaches could be used to create novel assistive devices for KOA patients to help them better manage their condition and reduce the risk of non-functional overreaching. In addition to other non-pharmacological conservative treatments, gait modification advances through gait retraining therapies (e.g., altering the foot progression angle) have proved to be successful in lowering KAM during walking and relieving patient symptoms.

Objective: The purpose of the research was to bring together all of the information on telerehabilitation in physical therapy then had gathered through systematic reviews.Methods: Systematic reviews of various illnesses, groups, and situations were included, with the intervention being telerehabilitation by physical therapy. the outcomes were clinical efficacy, functioning, quality of life, happiness, adherence, and safety depending on the conditiona reviewextracted the data and assessed the possibility of biaswith a second reviewer performing non-independent verification. In the tables and figures, the findings are presented qualitatively.Results: There were 53 systematic reviews in total, with 17 of them having a There is a low chance of prejudice. There were fifteen reviews devoted to cardiorespiratory rehabilitation, fourteen to musculoskeletal issues, and thirteen to neurorehabilitation. Other types of conditions and therapy were addressed in the other 11 assessments Thirteen reviews have a low chance of being biassed and found that telerehabilitation was superior to in-person rehabilitation or no therapy, whereas 17 11 found no differences between the groups. Thirty-five reviews with a high or uncertain risk of bias yielded conflicting results. Telerehabilitation is defined as "the delivery of rehabilitation services using information and communication technology." It includes assessment, prevention, therapy, education, and counseling Instead of drugs or surgery, physical therapies such as massage, heat treatment, and exercise are used to treat illness, injury, or deformity.
