DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Advanced Biofidelic Lower Extremity Kids prosthesis (ABLE Kids) project will advance the state-of-the-art of pediatric prosthesis systems by incorporating miniaturized mesofluIdic mechanisms pioneered by the Oak Ridge National Labs (ORNL), advanced control algorithms developed by Clarkson University, and digital proportional control into prosthetic joints designed for pediatric use. Specifically, ABLE Kids will result in a modular, microprocessor controlled, mesofluidic knee joint that dynamically makes knee control adjustments needed to optimize the dynamic function and safety of a child's prosthesis. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: This project will advance the state of the art for lower limb prostheses for children. Novel mesofluidic technology and control algorithms will be used to make miniaturized microprocessor controlled hydraulic joint systems. The result will be improved function and decreased problems for children with limb loss.

描述（由申请人提供）：高级生物相容性低关节率儿童假体（ABLE Kids）项目将通过将橡树岭国家实验室（ORNL）首创的小型化mesofluIdic机制、克拉克森大学开发的高级控制算法和数字比例控制纳入儿科使用的假体关节中，推进最先进的儿科假体系统。具体来说，ABLE Kids将产生一种模块化的、微处理器控制的、中间流体的膝关节，该膝关节动态地进行优化儿童假体的动态功能和安全性所需的膝关节控制调整。 公共卫生相关性：该项目将推进儿童下肢假肢的最新技术水平。新的介观流体技术和控制算法将用于制造小型化微处理器控制的液压接头系统。其结果将是改善功能和减少问题的儿童肢体损失。
