A condition brought on by irritation or swelling of the tendons found along the thumb side of the wrist. The irritation causes the compartment (lining) around the tendon to swell, changing the shape of the compartment; this makes it difficult for the tendons to move as they should. The swelling can cause pain and tenderness along the thumb side of the wrist, usually noticed when forming a fist, grasping or gripping things, or turning the wrist. 4, record 9, English, - de%20Quervain%27s%20tendonitis

blackberry thumb: Experts caution that practical experience and emerging anecdotal evidence suggest overuse of personal digital assistants (PDAs) ... can conceivably lead to injury of the tendons and accompanying tissue of the thumb. "Blackberry thumb" is the latest colloquial interpretation of a very real medical condition called de Quervain's tendonitis, and its variant de Quervain's tenosynovitis. The names refer to inflammation of two tendons that control the opposable digit, or their protective tissue. 3, record 9, English, - de%20Quervain%27s%20tendonitis

Each subassembly component of the SRMS [for example] the shoulder, elbow or wrist is made up of a basic element called a joint one-degree-of-freedom or JOD. The JOD's are simply motor driven gearboxes that allow the basic structure of the arm to articulate much like the human arm. 3, record 14, English, - joint%20one%2Ddegree%2Dof%2Dfreedom
Record number: 14, Textual support number: 2 CONT
The JOD [joint one-degree-of-freedom] motors are equipped with their own brakes and joint motor speed control. Each JOD also incorporates a device called an encoder, which accurately measures joint angles. Thus each joint is capable of moving independently at different speeds and in different directions with respect to any or all the other JOD's. 3, record 14, English, - joint%20one%2Ddegree%2Dof%2Dfreedom

Chaque élément des sous-ensembles du SRMS(c.-à-d. l'épaule, le coude ou le poignet) est constitué d’un élément de base appelé articulation à un degré de liberté(DDL). Les articulations à un DDL sont simplement des boîtiers d’engrenages à moteur permettant à la structure du télémanipulateur de bouger à la manière du bras humain. 1, record 14, French, - articulation%20%C3%A0%20un%20degr%C3%A9%20de%20libert%C3%A9

Les moteurs des articulations [à un degré de liberté (DDL]) sont munis de leurs propres systèmes de freinage et de contrôle de vitesse de mouvement. Chaque articulation est également équipée d’un encodeur qui sert à mesurer précisément l’angle d’ouverture des articulations. Ainsi, les articulations sont indépendantes les unes des autres et peuvent bouger à des vitesses différentes et dans des directions différentes. 1, record 14, French, - articulation%20%C3%A0%20un%20degr%C3%A9%20de%20libert%C3%A9
