Well fuck, don't just lazily write up research. That does absolutely nothing for stroke survivors. Write and distribute stroke protocols worldwide. If your mentors and senior researchers aren't having you do that they are incompetent and need to be fired.
EEG analysis of mixed‐reality music rehabilitation system for post‐stroke lower limb therapy
First published: 05 May 2019
Abstract
Lots of evidence and guidelines recommended that stroke
patients have to do the rehabilitation all the time, but in fact, the
ratio of patients doing the rehabilitation is usually less than one
third. In order to enhance the rehabilitation efficacy, we develop an
innovative mixed‐reality music rehabilitation (MR2) system,
which is consisted of an MR goggle, inertial measurement unit sensors,
and an EEG system. Several music contents with different levels are
implemented into the MR system. While doing the rehabilitation task, our
system can monitor patient's both gait information and
electroencephalographic (EEG) signals to understand the rehabilitation
performance in both central and peripheral nervous systems. The MR2
system has been pilot testing on two stroke patients and three healthy
controls. Experiment results show that the patient's motor function is
significantly activating when wearing the MR2 system during
the rehabilitation task. Furthermore, the gait analysis results also
show that flexion angle of the hemiplegic knee during walking was
significantly improved(But did you test any patients with lower limb spasticity?) when following the tempo of the MR music content
in the rehabilitation. The pilot testing results provide new insights
into the understanding of complex brain functions of patients actively
and continuously performing the rehabilitation ordinary tasks within the
mixed‐reality applications.
