DVD problem and to improve and facilitate the circulation of blood in the veins and arteries of the socks unique robot has been developed.
The inventors have made a robot that can be worn like a sock and facilitates blood circulation in the body and reduce the risk of venous thrombosis
This is often immobile or stay deep in the bed occurs.
The team behind the construction of the robot is wearable, compression and tensile mechanism that moves the idea of expansion and contraction of hair is coral.
The risk of the disease among people who had been admitted to a bed and unable to move his limbs are between 13 to 18 percent.
In this design, robotics, a driver of a motor cotton socks are soft and lightweight, made of silicone rubber, and a pump connected to the valve
Pneumatic control system is responsible for the task. The pump is programmed to facilitate the flow of blood in the human ankle joint movement mimics foot.
“Le Fanzh” PhD student at the National University of Singapore (NUS) says: “The soft materials used to build the robot to the patient feel comfortable when using
Prepare a result, reduce the risk of injury caused by mechanical forces tough. ”
Now for the treatment of patients with DVT is a blood anticoagulant drugs but the drugs deleterious side effects such as increased risk of bleeding
Radarnd severe that these effects can be fatal. Examples of mechanical compression and compression stockings to help these patients in the past
Made, but these methods have not helped the situation. Therefore, the robot can be made to solve this type of assistance and fruitful
Actually be counterproductive.
“Rated U”, assistant professor of biomedical engineering at the National University of Singapore says: “The size of a compact, modular design and ease of use of the
Robotics soft socks, makes it to the hospital environments, physical disability centers and even in the home used for patients and risk
