Recently, there has been a trend toward assistive mechatronic devices that are wearable. These devices provide the ability to assist without tethering the user to a specific location. However, there are characteristics of these devices that are limiting their ability to perform motion tasks and the adoption rate of these devices into clinical settings. The objective of this research is to perform a review of the existing wearable assistive devices that are used to assist with musculoskeletal and neurological disorders affecting the upper limb. A review of the existing literature was conducted on devices that are wearable, assistive, and mechatronic, and that provide motion assistance to the upper limb. Five areas were examined, including sensors, actuators, control techniques, computer systems, and intended applications. Fifty-three devices were reviewed that either assist with musculoskeletal disorders or suppress tremor. The general trends found in this review show a lack of requirements, device details, and standardization of reporting and evaluation. Two areas to accelerate the evolution of these devices were identified, including the standardization of research, clinical, and engineering details, and the promotion of multidisciplinary culture. Adoption of these devices into their intended application domains relies on the continued efforts of the community.

SummaryChildren and adolescents with bone and growth disorders require interdisciplinary care from various specialists including pediatric radiologists with a focus on musculoskeletal disorders. This article covers routine topics, differential diagnoses, and selected research imaging in children with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), X‑linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLH), achondroplasia, and other bone and growth disorders from the standpoint of a tertiary referral center.

Introduction. The knowledge about the opinion of parents/legal caregivers of young patients with cerebral palsy (CP) on the methods of rehabilitation is important in the treatment process because they know children’s needs and are their daily observers which allows for continuous verification of the health status discrepancies. Aim. The aim of this study was to describe parents’/legal caregivers’ opinion on the quality and the effectiveness of the selected forms of rehabilitation in children and adolescents with CP. Material and methods. The parents’/legal caregivers’ opinions were collected using a self-developed questionnaire. A total of 120 parents/legal guardians of the children and adolescents with a wide range of neurological disorders participated in the study. Results. According to the respondents answers, the number of days of therapy during the year is insufficient, which encourages to look for additional, paid forms of therapy. In addition, the parents clearly emphasized the essence of communication with the therapist and the willingness to be informed about the therapy. In their opinion, additional therapies with a psychologist, speech therapist and occupational therapist are an important element of the rehabilitation process. A significant number of parents/legal caregivers expressed their interest in the possibility of meeting a therapeutic team. Conclusions. It can also be concluded that parents/legal caregivers do not know both the nomenclature used by therapists and the results of scientific researches. Among the rehabilitation methods hydrotherapy and the NDT-Bobath method were considered the most effective.
