Technology assisted therapy has the potential to transform rehabilitation options available, and to dramatically increase the reach of today's healthcare system. Yet challenges persist in rendering translational application designs that optimize the full potential of technology and create value for the patient and the therapist. In a step towards optimizing value of technologies for practical applications...
Personalized requirements practices can be applied to specify goals as part of a clinical plan to aid cognitive rehabilitation. In this context, requirements monitoring can aid clinicians in tracking user behaviors as they attempt to achieve their goals. Quality metrics over stream-mined models can identify potential changes in user goal attainment, as a user learns his or her personalized emailing...
This paper presents a supplementary system for rehabilitation, which is based on the wireless accelerometer network and integrates with remote monitoring and cross-platform intelligent terminal. System features are analyzed, and then hardware, software and different platforms are discussed and developed. Two tested cases are presented. One is for rehabilitation training of a patient with elbow ligament...
Personalized health devices are the novel paradigm to reduce healthcare costs and to improve the quality of health services. At the same time, health interventions and promotion of self behaviors generate benefits to healthcare and allow citizens to be more involved in their own health management. This paper describes the process followed in HeartCycle project to design education and coaching services...
A rehabilitation training system based on multi-parameters status monitoring and information fusion is discussed in this paper. The signal processing system is built with MSJP430 series MCU. Soft judgment is carried out based on all kind of information from the force on driving wheel, the speed of driving motor, the stress of patient's sit gesture from sensor array. Specific observation domain is...
Elinor is a game based tool for rehabilitation of stroke patients to be used in their home environment. The application is the result of a creative and exploratory development project in which researchers in the serious games area and experts in stroke rehabilitation collaborated in order to develop a motivating, easy to use and relatively inexpensive tool for relearning functions lost due to a stroke...
In this paper conceptions and architectural considerations of the OSAMI project and their specializations towards the requirements of the e-health domain by the German subproject (OSAMI-D) are described. Along with the expected shift of healthcare service between stationary towards ambulatory care, a standardized way of integrating medical data acquired at home into the IT infrastructure of hospitals...
Spatial neglect has proven to be a significant factor limiting the success of the rehabilitation process following stroke. Current tests for neglect however have several substantial drawbacks, which often lead to a misdiagnosis of less severe cases. Further, while asymmetries of performance have been reported in the past along independent spatial dimensions, current tests are mostly limited to the...
