REHABILITATION EXERCISE DEVICE FOR UPPER AND LOWER LIMBS
Proposed is a rehabilitation exercise device for upper and lower limbs. The rehabilitation exercise device is characterized by including: a first support supporting a user's hand or foot; a second support supporting a user's forearm or calf; a pair of first hinges rotatably connecting the first support and the second support to each other; a third support supporting a user's upper arm or thigh; a pair of second hinges rotatably connecting the second support and the third support to each other; and a drive module selectively mounted on any one of the pair of first hinges and the pair of second hinges, and configured to pivot the first support or the second support.
Exercise device
A machine that facilitates the performance of physical therapy exercises with or without the assistance of a physical therapist. The device allows a patient to sit upon a table, and connect the patient's body part to a cuff and pulling system. Then, via hand movements upon an article of the device cause body part flexion. Too, a patient can use the device for isometric like exercising via a series of stretch bands that attach to the cuff and table.
KNEE JOINT ORTHOTIC DEVICE MANUFACTURING APPARATUS AND KNEE JOINT ORTHOTIC DEVICE MANUFACTURING METHOD, AND KNEE JOINT TREATMENT SUPPORT APPARATUS AND KNEE JOINT TREATMENT SUPPORT METHOD
Noninvasive natural healing in daily life or regenerative cell treatment can be promoted. A knee joint model is constructed by three-dimensionally analyzing measurement data obtained by measuring an outline shape and internal space shape of a knee joint part of a subject; a transition state towards an orthotic direction for a symptom improvement of the knee joint part is simulated continuously or stepwisely with reference to the knee joint model; and an exoskeleton mold capable of continuously or stepwisely finely adjusting the knee joint part towards the orthotic direction is designed based on the transition state.
STAIR-CLIMBING MACHINES, SYSTEMS INCLUDING STAIR-CLIMBING MACHINES, AND METHODS FOR USING STAIR-CLIMBING MACHINES TO PERFORM TREATMENT PLANS FOR REHABILITATION
A computer-implemented system may include a stair-climbing machine configured to be manipulated by a user while the user performs a treatment plan, an interface comprising a display configured to present information associated with the treatment plan, and processing structure configured to receive, from one or more data sources, information associated with the user, wherein the information comprises one or more risk factors associated with a cardiac-related event; generate, using one or more trained machine learning models, the treatment plan for the user, wherein the treatment plan is generated based on the information associated with the user, and the treatment plan comprises one or more exercises associated with managing the one or more risk factors in order to reduce a probability that a cardiac intervention will occur; and transmit the treatment plan to cause the stair-climbing machine to implement the one or more exercises.
Cloud-assisted rehabilitation methods and systems for musculoskeletal conditions
Embodiments of the invention include a cloud-assisted rehabilitation system for assisting in the rehabilitation of musculoskeletal conditions, and a method for rehabilitating patients having musculoskeletal conditions. A rehabilitation portal can aggregate and de-identified musculoskeletal rehabilitation information that is gathered from various intelligent musculoskeletal rehabilitation apparatuses attached to a group of patients. The rehabilitation portal can facilitate crowd communication among the group of patients. A particular rehabilitation experience can be compared with other rehabilitation experiences and data from other patients. The rehabilitation portal can also facilitate crowd communication among a group of healthcare professionals so that the plurality of healthcare professionals can communicate with each other and compare information regarding different rehabilitation experiences based at least on the aggregated de-identified musculoskeletal rehabilitation information.
FLEXIBLE EXOSUIT FOR ASSISTIVE MOBILITY
An exosuit includes a first structure including a series of link elements joined together by joints. The series of link elements extends along a length of the first structure. The joints are configured to flex such that, when the exosuit is worn by a user, the first structure at least partially conforms to a shape of the user's anatomy at a first side of the first structure that extends along the length. The joints restrict flexing that would deform a second side of the first structure extending along the length of the first structure. The exosuit includes a second structure and an actuator coupled to the first structure and the second structure. The actuator causes movement of the first structure relative to the second structure. The exosuit includes an attachment portion to attach the exosuit to the user with the first side of the first structure facing toward the user.
DESIGN AND USE OF A LEG SUPPORT EXOSKELETON
A leg support exoskeleton is strapped on as a wearable device to support its user during squatting. The exoskeleton includes a knee joint connected to a first link and a second link, which is configured to allow flexion and extension motion between the first link and the second link. A force generator has a first end that is rotatably connected to the first link. A constraining mechanism is connected to the second link and has at least two operational positions. In a first operational position, the second end of the force generator engages the constraining mechanism, where the first link and the second link flex relative to each other. In a second operational position, the second end of the force generator does not engage the constraining mechanism; the first link and the second link are free to flex and extend relative to each other.
EXOSKELETON SYSTEM
An exoskeleton system in order to provide walking support to people who have disability in walking or in order to provide performance improvement to healthy people includes at least one first body for being connected to the motionless upper part of the leg and at least one second body for being connected to the motionless lower part of the leg and at least one knee embodiment provided between said first body and said second body in a manner allowing motion of the knee joint, and at least one foot embodiment for forming support to the foot part by being connected to the second body. The improvement of the exoskeleton system is that said knee embodiment includes at least one isogram mechanism provided in a manner supporting the bio-mechanical motion of the knee joint from the side (sagittal plane) part of the knee joint.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USING AI/ML AND TELEMEDICINE FOR INVASIVE SURGICAL TREATMENT TO DETERMINE A CARDIAC TREATMENT PLAN THAT USES AN ELECTROMECHANICAL MACHINE
A computer-implemented method is disclosed. The method includes receiving, at a computing device, a first treatment plan designed to treat an invasive surgical-related health issue of a user. The first treatment plan comprises at least two exercise sessions that, based on the invasive surgical-related health issue, enable the user to perform an exercise at different exertion levels. Next, while the user uses the electromechanical machine to perform the first treatment plan, receiving, at the computing device, data from sensors configured to measure the data associated with the invasive surgical-related health issue and transmitting the data. One or more machine learning models are used to generate a second treatment plan. The second treatment plan modifies at least one exertion level, and the modification is based on a standardized measure comprising perceived exertion, the data, and the invasive surgical-related health issue. The method additionally includes receiving the second treatment plan.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR USING ELLIPTICAL MACHINE TO PERFORM CARDIOVASCULAR REHABILITATION
Systems including an elliptical machine and a processing device. The processing device may be configured to receive, before or while a user operates the elliptical machine, one or more messages pertaining to the user or a use of the elliptical machine by the user. The processing device may be also configured to determine whether the one or more messages were received by the processing device. In response to determining that the one or more messages were not received by the processing device, the processing device may be configured to determine, via one or more machine learning models, one or more actions to perform. The one or more actions may include at least one of initiating a telecommunications transmission, stopping operation of the elliptical machine, and modifying one or more parameters associated with the operation of the elliptical machine.
