Introduction to Biomechanics Chapter 1 Biomechanics is a scientific discipline which studies biological systems, such as the human body, by the methods of mechanical engineering. Since gait is a mechanical process which is performed by a biological system, it is appropriate to study it in this way.

Microsurgery Assessment Increasing recognition that practice alone is not sufficient for complex skill acquisition -e.g. microsurgical skills (rajan2019) Microsurgery is a complex skill that needs training and deliberate practice, and some form of objective assessment of that skill is necessary for formative or summative assessment. The gold standard in practice is success rate, but that requires a series of

Supermicrosurgery Supermicrosurgery refers to the anastomosis of sub-millimeter vessels. The size range of the vessels or nerve in supermicrosurgery is typically 0.3-0.8 mm. By that definition, distal replant surgery is a form of supermicrosurgery, although that term was not used when I was training.
