A prosthesis is an artificial device that is used to replace a missing body part that was lost due to various reasons like trauma, disease, or a condition present at birth. It is used to restore functions of the missing body part.
Though there were many unique prostheses throughout history offering different functionality, proper development in prosthetics began only in the 20th century. Ambrose Pare, considered one of the fathers of surgery, had made drastic advancements in amputation surgery with the invention of kneeling pegleg and foot prosthesis with knee-lock and adjustable harness.
After World War II, there was a further increase in prosthesis development. Of the soldiers in the US Army wounded in action during World War II, about 15,000 (2.5%) required major amputations. It was in 1945 that a cooperative research and development program was launched by the highest scientific body engaged in the war effort—the National Academy of Sciences at the request of the military for research and development in prosthetics. This drastically improved the quality and functionality of prosthetics.
In the last decade, prosthetics have revolutionized with the development of new materials, which are lighter, cheaper, and more durable. Scientists, Doctors, and Engineers have worked together to restore as many natural functions as the replaced body part has in a prosthesis. Plastic and carbon fibre-based prostheses are lighter and stronger, and as their parts can be 3D-printed, there is a massive cut in manufacturing costs.
Another material offered in prosthetics is cane. A Bengaluru based startup called 'Rise Legs' has come with this unusual but promising material for prosthetics. With a 3D carving technique to make sockets, founder Arun Cherian says the prosthesis can cost between Rs5000 to Rs1.25 lakh.
Electronic skin is bringing the joy of experiencing touch to prosthetics. This prosthetic skin is made up of fabric and rubber laced with sensors to mimic nerve endings, e-dermis recreates a sense of touch as well as pain by sensing stimuli and relaying the impulses back to the peripheral nerves. Motors integrated into prosthesis helps to restore the power of lost muscles. Hence, giving the users the ability to cover greater distances than a normal body-powered prosthesis. A.I. in robotic prostheses uses complex algorithms to interpret nerve signals from the patient's muscles that allow the prosthesis to be controlled more precisely.
These modern features in prosthetics have made the life of prosthesis users more comfortable and independent. So that leads us to the final question, what is the future of prosthetics?
At the University of Chicago, associate professor and neuroprosthetics researcher Dr. Sliman Bensmaia say, brain-controlled prosthetics have become a vibrant field of research. He says, "The idea is to put electrodes in the motor cortex so when a tetraplegic patient tries to move their arm or imagines moving their arm, there is a characteristic pattern of activation in this motor part of the brain. We can take the signals from this part of the brain and infer what the patient or the subject wanted to do, and then you make the robotic arm do that."
In short, the future of prosthetics is to improve the functionality of prostheses by using AI to interpret body movements and perfect the language of touch. And improve the quality of life of the amputee, by making prostheses more stylish and visually pleasing.

It is for sure that you have been through quite a few other guidelines as well for business name selection.
Unfortunately, it is not as easy and straight forward as it seems to be. There is a whole list of aspects that may impact your startup name.
Even after you have finalized your brand name, you need to be sure to check if any of your competitors has not already picked it up. Make sure that the business name you have chosen is not registered or copyrighted by anyone before. Also, check that the same domain name is available and is not used before.
Once you have made sure of the availability of the startup name, it would be a good idea to get the name registered and copyrighted, so that no one else can claim for the same name ever again. Also reserve the same domain name for your business website. Once you have done that, you are almost done with the startup name selection process and you can now move on to business logo designing with other marketing and advertising process for your venture.

If classified as benign, the enlarged prostate is called benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). As for whether it is malignant, it will lead to prostate cancer.
Although it does not endanger the life of the victim, the complaints that arise due to an enlarged prostate are very disturbing activities.
Some people who have an enlarged prostate will feel dissatisfied when urinating.
Symptoms can include a weak urinary stream, increased frequency of urination, frequent awakenings at night, and an inability to hold back the urge to urinate.
In severe cases, an enlarged prostate can cause urinary retention, which is a condition in which a person is unable to excrete urine that is in the bladder.
To overcome the prostate, whether to surgery? Actually, the action to treat this condition depends on the severity.
The main goal of treating an enlarged prostate is to improve the patient's quality of life. The therapy offered also varies, depending on the severity of the symptoms experienced.
To determine the severity, the doctor will perform a series of tests including:
- International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) test score.
- Lab tests, such as urinalysis, prostate- specific antigen (PSA), and kidney function.
- Urophlometry (evaluation of the urine stream), calculation of residual urine.
- Images of the prostate that can be an ultrasound exam.

Ezase Durban Media KZN better known as EDK Media is a Film and TV production company established back in 2011, based in the heart of Durban KwaZulu-Natal. It offers a variety of services including: TV Presenting Training, Photoshoots, TV Shows, Documentaries, Events management and many more.
On Friday the 15th of July 2022, EDK Media production team attended an art workshop in Umlazi, the south eastern part of KwaZulu-Natal which was held in Umlazi Cinema Hall.
The event was solely based on ways that the youth could utilize to venture into the corporate sector and the entertainment industry. The gap has been identified, that the youth is seeking employment rather than self employment. With the unemployment rate at its peak in South Africa, it is crystal clear that having a degree does not automatically translate to employment.
Dignitaries and speakers from different places graced the event with their presence, amongst which Mr Xolani Dlamini, the founder and event organizer of Urban Arts Entertainment attended. Menzi Theo (executive director of EDK Media), Bella Mnyandu and Smangele Sokhela commended the event organizers for pulling off such a great event in such a short space of time.
We still have a long way ahead to ensure that our government is democratically accountable for its people and for the young people to be granted equal opportunity. We're hopeful that events of this nature make a dent.
