Chmarra, M.K. (author), Jansen, F.W. (author), Grimbergen, C.A. (author), Dankelman, J. (author)Aims- Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) requires a high degree of eye–hand coordination from the surgeon. To facilitate the learning process, objective assessment systems based on analysis of the instruments’ motion are being developed. To investigate the influence of performance on motion characteristics, we examined goaloriented movements in a...journal article 2007

Dankelman, J. (author)With the introduction of minimally invasive surgery (MIS), it became necessary to develop training methods to learn skills outside the operating room. Several training simulators have become commercially available, but fundamental research into the requirements for effective and efficient training in MIS is still lacking. Three aspects of...journal article 2007

Herder, J.L. (author), Vrijlandt, N. (author), Antonides, T. (author), Cloosterman, M. (author), Mastenbroek, P.L. (author)This article describes the development of a mobile arm support for people with muscular diseases. The arm support is spring-balanced, with special attention on reduction of operating effort (high balancing quality and low friction), functionality (large range of motion), and aesthetics (inconspicuous design). The spring settings can be adjusted...journal article 2006

Dodou, D. (author), Breedveld, P. (author), Wieringa, P.A. (author)One of the main challenges in designing diagnostic devices able to move along the colon is their locomotion method. Generating friction without applying high normal forces is a key requirement in order to eliminate the risk of tissue damage. One possible solution is to generate friction by means of adhesive forces. For this reason, the device...journal article 2006

Wentink, M. (author), Fischer, H. (author), Dankelman, J. (author), Stassen, L.P.S. (author), Wieringa, P.A. (author)Purpose: To evaluate the effect of perspective distortion of wide-angle lenses in laparoscopes on hand-eye coordination during endoscopic manipulation. Methods: Sixteen subjects repeatedly performed a standardized positioning task in a pelvi-trainer under two conditions. The subjects had no prior experience with endoscopic manipulation. In one...journal article 2002

Van der Krogt, M.M. (author), Bregman, D.J.J. (author), Wisse, M. (author), Doorenbosch, C.A.M. (author), Harlaar, J. (author), Collins, S.H. (author)Children with cerebral palsy frequently experience foot dragging and tripping during walking due to a lack of adequate knee flexion in swing (stiff-knee gait). Stiff-knee gait is often accompanied by an overly flexed knee during stance (crouch gait). Studies on stiff-knee gait have mostly focused on excessive knee muscle activity during (pre...journal article

Campfens, S.F. (author), Zandvliet, S.B. (author), Meskers, C.G.M. (author), Schouten, A.C. (author), Van Putten, M.J.A.M. (author), Van der Kooij, H. (author)Abstract The possibility to regain motor function after stroke depends on the intactness of motor and sensory pathways. In this study, we evaluated afferent sensory pathway information transfer and processing after stroke with the coherence between cortical activity and a position perturbation (position-cortical coherence, PCC). Eleven subacute...journal article
