Other Title
Device for controlling endoprosthetic supplied joint - has sensor system which determines quantitatively measuring engineering operations in joint or in endoprosthesis and control and regulation unit for sensor signal.
Abstract
The control device includes a sensor system, which quantitatively determines especially using instrumentation, the operations in the joint or in an endoprosthesis. A control and regulating unit is provided, at which the output signal of the sensor system is applied, and generate signals for controlling the regulation. At least one adjusting element is provided, to which the output signal of the control and regulating unit is supplied, and which carries out a coupling at own body control and regulating paths. USE - For a joint supplied endoprosthetically or for assisting the resetting of a physiological unintended joint movement according to pathological, degenerative, post-traumatic or inherent alterations in strip, joint and/or muscle apparatus.
