    Abstract The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy and user's impression of an arm-support exoskeleton in complex and realistic ceiling construction tasks. 11 construction workers performed 9 tasks. We determined objective and subjective efficacy of the exoskeleton by measuring shoulder muscle activity and perceived exertion. User's impression was assessed by questionnaires on expected support, perceived support, perceived hindrance and future intention to use the exoskeleton. Wearing the exoskeleton yielded persistent reductions in shoulder muscle activity of up to 58% and decreased perceived exertion. Participants reported limited perceived hindrance by the exoskeleton, as also indicated by no increase in antagonistic muscle activity. The findings demonstrate the high potential of an arm-support exoskeleton for unloading the shoulder muscles when used in the dynamic and versatile working environment of a ceiling construction worker, which is in line with the consistent intention of the workers to use the exoskeleton in the future.

    Abstract Exoskeleton use in day-to-day plastering may face several challenges. Not all plasterer's tasks comprise of movements that will be supported by the exoskeleton and might even be hindered. Furthermore, use in practice might be jeopardised by time pressure, colleagues being negative, discomfort, or any other hindrance of the exoskeleton. We set up a field study, in which 39 plasterers were equipped with an exoskeleton for six weeks, to study exoskeleton usage. Moreover, we studied workload and fatigue, behaviour, productivity and quality, advantages and disadvantages, and acceptance. Exoskeleton use was dependent on the task performed but did not change over the course of the six weeks. For three tasks, higher exoskeleton use was associated with lower perceived loads, although differences were small. Advantages outweighed disadvantages for the majority of our population. This study shows that a majority of plasterers will wear the exoskeleton and is enthusiastic about the load reducing effect.

    Abstract Aims: Proper preoperative planning benefits fracture reduction, fixation, and stability in tibial plateau fracture surgery. We developed and clinically implemented a novel workflow for 3D surgical planning including patient-specific drilling guides in tibial plateau fracture surgery.
    Methods: A prospective feasibility study was performed in which consecutive tibial plateau fracture patients were treated with 3D surgical planning, including patient-specific drilling guides applied to standard off-the-shelf plates. A postoperative CT scan was obtained to assess whether the screw directions, screw lengths, and plate position were performed according the preoperative planning. Quality of the fracture reduction was assessed by measuring residual intra-articular incongruence (maximum gap and step-off) and compared to a historical matched control group.
    Results: A total of 15 patients were treated with 3D surgical planning in which 83 screws were placed by using drilling guides. The median deviation of the achieved screw trajectory from the planned trajectory was 3.4° (interquartile range (IQR) 2.5 to 5.4) and the difference in entry points (i.e. plate position) was 3.0 mm (IQR 2.0 to 5.5) compared to the 3D preoperative planning. The length of 72 screws (86.7%) were according to the planning. Compared to the historical cohort, 3D-guided surgery showed an improved surgical reduction in terms of median gap (3.1 vs 4.7 mm; p = 0.126) and step-off (2.9 vs 4.0 mm; p = 0.026).
    Conclusion: The use of 3D surgical planning including drilling guides was feasible, and facilitated accurate screw directions, screw lengths, and plate positioning. Moreover, the personalized approach improved fracture reduction as compared to a historical cohort.

    Abstract Background: Post-stroke pain in patients with an inability to communicate is not systematically assessed and therefore not sufficiently treated. This stresses the need to study pain assessment instruments that do not require good communication skills.
    Aim: To examine the validity and reliability of the Pain Assessment Checklist for Seniors with Limited Ability to Communicate - Dutch version (PACSLAC-D) in stroke patients with aphasia.
    Method: Sixty stroke patients (mean age 79.3 years, standard deviation [SD] 8.0), of whom 27 had aphasia were observed during rest, activities of daily living (ADL), and physiotherapy using the Pain Assessment Checklist for Seniors with Limited Ability to Communicate - Dutch version (PACSLAC-D). The observations were repeated after two weeks. To examine convergent validity, correlations between the PACSLAC-D, self-report pain scales, and the clinical judgment of a health care professional (pain present yes/no) were used. To examine discriminative validity, differences in pain were investigated between rest and ADL, in patients who use pain medication and those who do not, and in patients with and without aphasia. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were assessed to determine reliability.
    Results: Convergent validity failed to meet the acceptable threshold during rest but was adequate during ADL and physiotherapy. Discriminative validity was only adequate during ADL. The internal consistency was 0.33 during rest, 0.71 during ADL, and 0.65 during physiotherapy. Test-retest reliability varied from poor during rest (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] = 0.07; 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.40-0.51) to excellent during physiotherapy (ICC = 0.95; 95% CI: 0.83-0.98).
    Conclusions: The PACSLAC-D captures pain in patients with aphasia who are unable to self-report, during ADL and physiotherapy, but may be less accurate during rest.
