An Advanced Smart Glove for Stroke Rehabilitation Using IOT
Abstract:
Stroke
is one of the most severe and life-altering medical emergencies
globally. Despite advancements in treatment, millions of stroke
survivors face challenges accessing physiotherapy due to limited
healthcare resources. To address this, our project introduces an
innovative smart rehabilitation device designed to restore finger
mobility in patients, particularly those who have lost voluntary
movement. These state-of-the-art wearable leverages advanced mobile and
IoT technology, enabling patients to perform repetitive hand
exercises—flexing and extending their fingers—without requiring
continuous hands-on therapy. A precision-controlled servomotor
facilitates these movements, while real-time motion data is transmitted
to a mobile application or a secure web platform. In addition to
enhancing mobility, the device functions as a personalized health
monitoring system, tracking vital signs such as heart rate, blood
pressure, and oxygen saturation (SpO2) .
By analyzing heart rate data, the system can detect patient discomfort,
allowing for proactive health management. Given that hypertension is a
major stroke risk factor, the integration of blood pressure monitoring
is crucial, as high BP can lead to blocked arteries, blood clots, and
brain hemorrhages. With IoT-driven remote healthcare, doctors can
monitor patient progress in real time, access data on glove usage and
therapy efficiency, and provide timely interventions. This
next-generation rehabilitation technology not only empowers stroke
patients with greater independence but also enhances the accessibility
and precision of post-stroke care, paving the way for a smarter, more
connected future in medical rehabilitation.
