Competency information
Details
Compare the standard biomechanical model used locally to alternative models by considering and evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of each
Considerations
- Identification of potential risk
- Identification of potential ways to minimise risk
- How to contribute to the process of risk assessment review
- The importance of taking responsibility, under supervision, for an aspect of the risk review
- Application of local and national risk assessment guidelines/procedures
- Appreciation of the limitations of local procedures
- How to undertake a critical literature review of alternative models in relation to range of patients analysed locally
- Principles of biomechanical modelling
- Process of developing a biomechanical model
- Process of testing/validating a new biomechanical model
- Euler angles and other methods for representing motion
- Specification of a marker set and the development of technical and anatomical reference frames
