Rehabilitation equipment for rotator cuff injuries shoulder

Abstract

in this paper, the design of a biomedical device for rehabilitation of rotator cuff tendinitis and methodology for development is exposed. The first part is introduced into the rotator cuff anatomy and biomechanics, and then some epidemiological profiles found in the literature are presented. Subsequently the constituent parts of the proposed prototype and operation of electromechanical elements are described. Finally, the results obtained in designing the prototype, and the conclusions a nd future work are outlined.
