ROWING MACHINES, SYSTEMS INCLUDING ROWING MACHINES, AND METHODS FOR USING ROWING MACHINES TO PERFORM TREATMENT PLANS FOR REHABILITATION
A computer-implemented system may include a rowing 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 a processing device 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 rowing machine to implement the one or more exercises.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USING AI/ML TO GENERATE TREATMENT PLANS TO STIMULATE PREFERRED ANGIOGENESIS
A computer-implemented system includes a processing device configured to receive a plurality of user and blood vessel characteristics associated with a user, generate a selected set of user and blood vessel characteristics, determine, based on the selected set of the user and blood vessel characteristics, a probability that angiogenesis will occur, and generate, based on the probability and the selected set of the user and blood vessel characteristics, a treatment plan that includes one or more exercises directed to modifying the probability that angiogenesis will occur, and a treatment apparatus configured to implement the treatment plan while the treatment apparatus is being manipulated by the user.
Device with therapeutic features
A therapeutic stretching apparatus, which, in particular, provides a user with a system for providing assistance to increase knee extension as well as for maintaining stability of the knee after surgery. This device can not only act as a therapeutic stretching apparatus but also can act as a primary post-op knee brace with locks/limits on hinge to prevent user from further injuring the joint.
Unidirectional actuated exoskeleton device
The present invention is directed to an autonomous exoskeleton device that includes one or more actuators, one or more controllers, one or more sensors with one or more unidirectional transmissions. The present invention provides a mechanical joint in parallel with a biological joint. The exoskeleton device preferably includes and electric motor and winch, chain, belt, cam transmission or other mechanism for providing unidirectional force to assist rotation about the biologic joint. Moreover, a controller, a motor angle sensor, joint angle sensor and/or force sensor may be used for additional control and monitoring of the device. The motor may be any type of motor, but is preferably brushless in configuration where its diameter is larger than its length to provide a compact and lightweight exoskeleton device.
System to assist walking
The invention relates to a system to assist walking in spinal cord injured people, who preserve hip flexion capacity, comprising a pair of KAFO-type orthoses with: (a) an angular actuator (5) in each knee; (b) an orientation and acceleration sensor (6) on each leg; (c) a power supply and control system (7) to which all the sensors and actuators are connected; (d) a control algorithm deciding when to flex or extend the knee depending on the walking cycle, using information from the sensors.
Method and apparatus for a passive knee joint
An artificial knee is configured to be worn by a person. Artificial knees include a thigh link configured to move in unison with a thigh of the person, and a shank link configured to be coupled to the thigh link. Artificial knees include a compression spring coupled to the thigh link at a first end of the compression spring, the compression spring configured to be coupled to the shank link at a second end of the compression spring. The compression spring is configured to provide an extension torque between the thigh link and the shank link during a first range of motion of the thigh link and the shank link relative to each other. The compression spring is configured to provide a flexion torque between the thigh link and the shank link during a second range of motion of the thigh link and the shank link relative to each other.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING, BASED ON ADVANCED METRICS OF ACTUAL PERFORMANCE OF AN ELECTROMECHNICAL MACHINE, MEDICAL PROCEDURE ELIGIBILITY IN ORDER TO ASCERTAIN SURVIVABILITY RATES AND MEASURES OF QUALITY-OF-LIFE CRITERIA
A computer-implemented system includes one or more processing devices configured to receive user information associated with a user, generate a selected set of the user information, determine, based on the selected set of the user information, at least one of a first probability of surviving one or more procedures and a second probability indicating an improvement, resulting from the one or more procedures, in quality-of-life metrics for the user, generate, based on the at least one of the first probability and the second probability and on the selected set of the user information, one or more recommendations of whether the user should undergo the one or more procedures, and generate, based on the one or more recommendations, a treatment plan that includes one or more exercises directed to modifying the at least one of the first probability and the second probability.
