Resumo: | Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been considered an innovative technology for the development of orthoses. Even so, the use of AM, utilizing low cost rigid and flexible material which can be used in different ways by the same user, to produce a modular orthosis has yet to be explored. Purpose: Develop a modular wrist, hand and finger orthosis that can be utilized as a functional or static orthosis, depending on the therapeutic objective. This being produced by low cost Additive Manufacturing, through a single anatomy acquisition process. Approach: Firstly, requirements for modularization and development were defined in a team with occupational therapists and mechanical engineers, After indirect anatomy acquisition of a volunteer, without disabilities, two parts of the same orthosis were modeled, one flexible (functional) and the other rigid (static). These were printed on PLA (rigid part) and flexible TPU (functional part) with an Open Source printer. In addition, fastening strips were also made in flexible TPU. Findings: Three parts of which make up the modular orthosis were produced. This can be used in two different ways; one being to maintain the static posture of the wrist, hand and fingers and the other to provide functionality of the hands, but with the correct positioning of the wrist and thumb. Originality: Even with low-cost material and an open source machine, it was possible to generate an innovative proposal with the use of AM as the orthosis manufacturing process. |

Aun así, todavía no se ha explorado en la AM el uso combinado de materiales rígidos y flexibles de bajo costo que podrían ser utilizados conjuntamente, de diferentes maneras, por un mismo usuario en la forma de una órtesis modularizada. Objetivo: desarrollar una órtesis modular de muñeca, mano y dedos que pueda ser utilizada simultáneamente como una órtesis funcional o estática, en función del objetivo terapéutico. La órtesis se produce mediante la Manufactura Aditiva de bajo costo, por medio de un único proceso de adquisición de anatomía. Enfoque: primero, se definieron los requisitos para la modularización y el desarrollo en un equipo con terapeutas ocupacionales e ingenieros mecánicos. Después de la adquisición de la anatomía indirecta de un voluntario sin discapacidades se modelaron dos partes de la misma órtesis, siendo una flexible (funcional) y otra rígida (estática). Estas fueron impresas en PLA (unidad estática) y en TPU flexible (unidad funcional) con una impresora 3D común de código abierto. Además, se fabricaron tiras de sujeción en TPU flexible. Resultados: fueron fabricadas tres partes que componen la órtesis modular. Esta puede utilizarse de dos maneras diferentes; una para mantener la postura estática de la muñeca, de la mano y de los dedos, y la otra para proporcionar funcionalidad a las manos, pero manteniendo la posición correcta de la muñeca y del pulgar. Originalidad: incluso con un material de bajo costo y una máquina de código abierto, fue posible generar una propuesta innovadora utilizándose la AM como proceso de fabricación de la órtesis.A Manufatura Aditiva (AM) tem sido considerada uma tecnologia inovadora para desenvolvimento de órteses. Entretanto ainda não foi explorado o uso da AM para produzir uma órtese modular, utilizando material rígido e flexível de baixo custo, que possa ser utilizada de diferentes formas pelo mesmo usuário. Objetivo: Desenvolver uma órtese de unho, mão e dedos modular que possa ser utilizada como órtese funcional, ou estática a depender do objetivo terapêutico. Sendo esta produzida por Manufatura Aditiva de baixo custo, através de um único processo de aquisição da anatomia. Método: Inicialmente, em equipe com terapeutas ocupacionais e engenheiros mecânicos, foram definidos requisitos para a modularização e desenvolvimento. A partir da aquisição indireta da anatomia de um voluntário sem deficiência foram modeladas duas partes da mesma órtese, sendo uma flexível (funcional) e a outra rígida (estática). Estas foram impressas em PLA (parte rígida) e TPU flexível (parte funcional) com uma impressora Open Source. Adicionalmente foram confeccionadas tiras de fixação também em TPU flexivel. Resultado: Foram produzidas três partes que compõem a órtese modular. Esta pode ser utilizada de duas diferentes sendo uma para manter a postura estática da região de punho, mão e dedos e outra para propiciar funcionalidade das mãos, porém com o posicionamento correto do punho e polegar. Conclusão: Mesmo com material de baixo custo e maquina open source foi possível gerar uma proposta inovadora com o uso da AM como processo de fabricação de órteses.Research, Society and Development2021-11-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2270710.33448/rsd-v10i15.22707Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 15; e333101522707Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 15; e333101522707Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 15; e3331015227072525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIenghttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/22707/20359Copyright (c) 2021 Paloma Hohmann Poier; Rodrigo Pulido Arce; Gabriel Chemin Rosenmann; Maria Gabriela Reis Carvalho; Leandra Ulbricht; José Aguiomar Foggiattohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPoier, Paloma HohmannArce, Rodrigo PulidoRosenmann, Gabriel CheminCarvalho, Maria Gabriela ReisUlbricht, LeandraFoggiatto, José Aguiomar2021-12-06T10:13:53Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/22707Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:41:47.952803Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
