Abstract Since the outbreak of COVID‐19 pandemic, clinicians have had to use personal protective equipment (PPE) for prolonged periods. This has been associated with detrimental effects, especially in relation skin health. The present study describes a comprehensive survey healthcare workers (HCWs) describe their experiences using PPE managing patients, particular focus on adverse reactions. A 24‐hour prevalence and multi‐centre prospective were designed capture impact health hospital staff....

Following lower limb amputation residuum skin from the leg is used to reconstruct residual limb. Unlike on sole of foot (plantar skin), not inherently load bearing. Despite this, required be bearing in prosthetic socket. Current hypotheses propose that amputee can adapt become with repeated prosthesis use. Here, we show using confocal Raman spectroscopy, mechanical characterization and cytokine analysis adaptations occur which actually result impaired barrier function, higher baseline...
Abstract: Non-invasive ventilation is commonly used for respiratory support. However, in some cases, mask application can cause pressure ulcers to specific features of the face, resulting pain and reduced quality life individual. This study investigated effects strap tension on biomechanical biomarker responses at skin interface. Healthy participants (n=13) were recruited assigned two different masks a random order, which fitted with three conditions representing increments 5 mm increase...
It has been proposed that finite element analysis can complement clinical decision making for the appropriate design and manufacture of prosthetic sockets amputees. However, translation not achieved, in part due to lengthy solver times complexity involved model development. In this study, a parametric was created, informed by variation (i) population-driven residuum shape morphology, (ii) soft tissue compliance (iii) socket design. A Kriging surrogate fitted response analyses across space...
Skin is the largest organ in body, representing an important interface to monitor health and disease. However, there significant variation skin properties for different ages, genders body regions due differences structure morphology of tissues. This study aimed evaluate use non-invasive tools discriminate a range mechanical functional parameters from sites.A cohort 15 healthy volunteers was recruited following appropriate informed consent. Four well-established CE-marked techniques were used...

Muscle dimension changes on ultrasound imaging (USI) indicate contractile activity. Quadriceps force and rectus femoris (RF) dimensions were examined to assess USI for estimating contraction level. In 15 healthy males, mean age 24.8 years, isometric quadriceps was measured in 90° knee flexion during submaximal maximal voluntary contractions (MVCs) at MVC extension. Mid-thigh cross-sectional area (CSA), depth width, surface electromyography (EMG) of RF recorded. width decreased curvilinearly...
