Biweekly Meeting of Cleveland Clinic Core Team
Date: Feb 27, 2018
Time: 10:30 AM EST
Means: In person meeting
Attendees:
- Ahmet Erdemir
- Snehal Chokhandre
- Erica Neumann
- Ariel Schwartz
Agenda:
- Discuss Open Knee(s) progress.
- Discuss joint data extraction to run Open Knee models.
- Discuss Knee Hub progress.
- Other.
Notes:
- Open Knee(s)
- Snehal completed the cartilage repeatability tests and preliminary analyses for oks003. The results were discussed.
- For initial assessment Snehal plotted all repeatability data for stress-strain, load-unload before and after preconditioning and preconditioning.
- All high strain moduli were calculated (both instantaneous and equlibrium). She also reported the percentage differences for all moduli and peak loads.
- These analyses were done for all test sets (confined compression, unconfined compression and tension).
- Unconfined compression and tensile tests have better repeatability than confined compression test sets.
- Ahmet suggested reporting average moduli and coefficient of variation.
- Snehal will conduct a thorough analysis in the upcoming weeks and start working on the manuscript for submission.
- In the meantime, she will be submitting an abstract describing this study to the upcoming American Society of Biomechanics conference.
- Snehal is also working on creating geometries from oks segmentations and will be updating all in the upcoming weeks.
- Rici will be working on updating the python scripts to extract joint testing data from TDMS files to accommodate left knees.
- Snehal completed the cartilage repeatability tests and preliminary analyses for oks003. The results were discussed.
- Knee Hub
- Snehal will update the data and tissue quality assessment document and upload it to the repository.
- Ahmet will meet the collaborators and discuss / decide the specimens that will be used for the study.
- Other
- Ariel is learning the tools for segmentation, geometry generation and modeling. She is also going over the specifications in Open Knee(s) and editing/updating them as needed. As a new user, she is also serving as a test subject for how new users can navigate the detailed specifications.
