Research Projects Ongoing or Completed During the Last Three Years:

"Static Force and Stability of Human Elbow"

Principal Investigator:  K. N. An, Ph.D.

Agency:  NIH-NIAMS

Type:  R01 (AR26287)   Period:  Dec. 1, 1994 to November 30, 1997

The overall goal of this study is to address the problems associated with elbow reconstruction and replacement.

Kinematic and stability analyses of six different designs of total elbow arthroplasty were studied.

"Biomechanics of the Rotator Cuff"

Principal Investigator:  K. N. An, Ph.D.

Agency:  NIH/NIAMS

Type:  R01 (AR41171)  Period:  Aug. 1, 1996 to July 31, 2000

The purpose of this study is to test two hypotheses:  1) The rotator cuff muscle complex contributes significantly to shoulder strength, 2) the rotator cuff tendons are exposed to stress levels which can potentially result in tissue failure.
