Innovative sports glove prototype for prevention and rehabilitation Ghent University
Within the Exoligamentz project, a supporting glove is being developed to minimize finger and hand injuries due to contact sports. The aim of this project is to build on an earlier StarTT project: select the most suitable materials and production methods for industrialization, further develop prototypes and test in low volumes, validate prototypes with end users in different sports, prepare a business model and go-to-market strategy. ...

Towards better understanding gait performance in people with stroke and the influence of trunk rehabilitation on gait recovery. KU Leuven
Previous work from the stroke rehabilitation research group in the area of trunk rehabilitation delivered the Trunk Impairment Scale, a standardized and globally used clinical measurement tool to assess trunk function after stroke in clinical practice and research. Furthermore, it was established that assessment of trunk function early after stroke is a significant and independent predictor of functional outcome at six months. Although ...
The anatomical, functional and pain determinants in EDS-HT patients with symptomatic shoulder instability, and the effect of a patient-centered rehabilitation program Ghent University
The purpose is to unravel the anatomical / structural and functional parameters of the shoulder in patients with hypermobile Ehlers-Dahlos Syndrome (hEDS) having shoulder instability, by a comparison with a healthy control group and a group with hypermobility spectrum disorders (HSD). In addition, the effect of a patient-oriented rehabilitation program will be examined, in comparison with standard care.
