| 概要 |
Impairment of hand function greatly affects the independence of a human being. Proper assessment of hand function before and after any treatment for functional restoration is important to decide bette...r treatment strategies. Despite traditional techniques of hand function evaluation, individual joint based assessment is vital to better track the details of the hand function. Current clinical assessments with goniometers are labour intensive, cumbersome and highly depend on the skill level of the practitioner. This study introduces an active range of motion (AROM) measurement system to measure individual range of motion of finger joints using an optical sensor. The proposed method is highly efficient, and the results demonstrated that the measurements are instant, repeatable and can successfully be employed in a clinical setup for patient evaluations.Clinical Relevance—Closely working with clinician to develop rehabilitation systems, we have identified that the assessment of patient hand functions is time consuming, and accuracy can be depended on the skill level of the practitioner in measuring joint range of motions (ROM). System introduced in this study can measure the joint AROMs instantly and independent of the practitioner’s skill level and hence can provide a reliable, repeatable assessment of patient’s hand function.続きを見る
