A case study on muscle activation analysis in post-stroke rehabilitation patients

And now they can map the output from this to the instrumented sock and a powered AFO along with the Regent suit. And maybe with this the therapists could work with objective measures rather than subjective. Although this still does not absolve the neurologist from providing a damage diagnosis.

Abstract



The paper presents a case study based on a system for the monitoring of daily functions in post-stroke rehabilitation patients. The system is capable of monitoring some daily life functions of the patient, by providing to the rehabilitation experts information about the correct or wrong activation of the monitored muscles during those specific functions. The monitoring system consists of a wearable wireless device, equipped with electrogoniometers and electromyography sensors, and by a signal processing software. Preliminary experiments have been conducted on post-stroke patients.
