Abstract:
Based on the latest medical information and technology in physiotherapy, there are some weaknesses in terms
of monitoring rehabilitation treatment carried out for example such as patients are monitored manually and
hospital staff is not enough to monitor all patients undergoing rehabilitation treatment in a hospital. Therefore,
we have decided to assist medical institutions in providing training to stroke patients by creating a system called
“Automated Arm Rehabilitation Monitoring System”. The system works by using motion or angle scans in units
of degrees of movement on the affected limb and will be recorded in computer control by a physiologist as well
as display a calculation of how many times the patient moves the hand on the LCD display. We also recommend
a wearable arm rehabilitation device equipped with a monitoring system for stroke recovery. The proposed
system is easily mounted on the arm with minimal external assistance. It has a data logging system that can store
data on a PC for a specific period of time that can be used by physical therapists for further analysis as well as
calculation of the data displayed on the LCD. By using this device, doctors and physiotherapists do not have to
assist patients in recovery at home. By using a Y-axis acceleration sensor, we were able to improve the recovery
process that could measure the rotational motion of the arm joint could provide more accurate analysis such as
patient performance and limits on any particular recovery exercise.
