The main objective of this project is to evaluate the capacity of pressurized air and heat delivered by the ADAMO-robot rehabilitation device to reach deep anatomical planes of the cervicothoracic and scapular region.
The secondary objective is to clarify the therapeutic potential of the ADAMO-robot technology on cervical pain based on the penetration capacities analyzed and to propose intervention protocols as a previous step to its use in clinical trials with non-specific mechanical cervicalgia and whiplash.
To do so, the project require the preparation and instrumentation of post-mortem individuals, performing a posterior approach to the cervicothoracic area to expose the right laminae of the cervical and thoracic vertebrae, the first three right costal tubercles and arches and the posterior face of the right scapula, where pressure and temperature sensors will be installed.
Layman's summary: The main objective of this project is to evaluate the capacity of pressurized air and heat delivered by the ADAMO-robot rehabilitation device to reach deep anatomical planes of the cervicothoracic and scapular region.
Techniques employed: Experimental study post-mortem
