An acquisition unit acquires a classification result obtained by classifying training assistants by performing a cluster analysis based on first rehabilitation data about rehabilitation performed by the trainee by using the rehabilitation support system, the first rehabilitation data including at least assistant data indicating a training assistant and index data indicating a degree of recovery of the trainee. A learning unit generates a learning model, the learning model being configured to input second rehabilitation data including at least the action data indicating an assisting action performed by the training assistant to assist the trainee and output the action data for suggesting a next action to be performed by the training assistant. The learning unit generates the learning model by using, as teacher data, the second rehabilitation data for which pre-processing has been performed based on the classification result.

A non-fixed shoulder brace is provided comprising: an affected shoulder support which is supported on an affected shoulder of a wearer; a waist support coupled to the wearer's waist; an affected arm mounting part in which the wearer's affected arm is inserted and which is supported by means of an affected shoulder strap member from the affected shoulder support; and an affected upper limb exercise assistance apparatus coupled to both ends of the waist support and disposed between the wearer's waist and the affected arm mounting part.

An apparatus for making combined vestibular and somatosensory function assessments, comprising: a portable base unit comprising: a movable platform being at least partially rotatable about an axis of rotation; in use, a user stands with both feet on the movable platform; an adjustable stopping mechanism for adjusting an extent to which the movable platform can rotate in at least one direction with respect to a horizontal plane; and a controller for controlling the adjustable stopping mechanism to selectively adjust the extent to which the movable platform is rotated by one of a plurality of discrete measurable amounts based on a control signal; a visual occlusion headset worn by the user, the headset comprising a device for recording a vestibular function response in response to a vestibular function test.

A hip assist actuation system is configured to allow a user to experience free movement of hip extension and hip flexion over a predetermined range and receive a torque assist in response to performing a lifting or pushing activity. The hip assist actuation system may be configured to determine whether the lifting or pushing activity is occurring and provide the torque assist in response to the determination.

A walking training device according to the present embodiment includes: a robot leg attached to one leg of a trainee; a treadmill; a load distribution sensor that detects a distribution of a load received from a sole of the trainee riding on the belt of the treadmill; and a walking state determination unit that determines whether the one leg has switched from a standing state to a swinging state based on a state of increase in a load detected by the load distribution sensor and received from another leg of the trainee performing walking training; and a control unit that starts bending control for the swinging state of the robot leg when the walking state determination unit determines that the one leg has switched from the standing state to the swinging state.

Systems and methods related to the field of cardiac resuscitation, and in particular to devices for assisting rescuers in performing cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are described herein. A method for managing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) treatment to a person in need of emergency assistance includes monitoring, with an electronic medical device, a parameter that indicates a quality level of a CPR component being provided to the person by a user; determining, with the electronic medical device, that the parameter indicates that the quality level of CPR being provided is inadequate; and providing, to one or more rescuers of the person, an audible, visual, or tactile indication that a different person should perform the CPR component.

The invention relates to a sensor device for capturing data when carrying out first aid measures for reanimating a person affected by a cardiac arrest. The sensor device is exactly positioned on the chest of the patient by means of a positioning-aid apparatus (5) and affixed by means of a fastening means (2). The thorax compressions, i.e., the pressing-in depth and compression frequency, are detectable by means of a motion sensor. A data-transfer interface allows communication, e.g. wireless communication, with a mobile terminal.

A multi-sensory media experience delivery platform includes a vibroacoustic therapy bed that delivers a multi-sensory media experience locally stored, streaming, on-demand, or real-time signals. The vibroacoustic therapy bed drives a plurality of sensory output devices based on a set of sensory output channels to produce sounds, vibrations, light patterns, or other sensory outputs. The channels may be derived from dedicated signals created for a specific sensory output device or may be derived from an audio file or other general set of waveforms. The multi-sensory media experience may be customized to a user based on user profile data, metadata associated with the multi-sensory media experience, or biometric data. Furthermore, users can create customized multi-sensory media experiences from libraries of sounds or other media.

A method and device for controlling a walking assist device is disclosed. The method includes determining a first state variable for a gait state of a user wearing the walking assist device based on a gait of the user, obtaining a second state variable which is smoothed and time-delayed from the first state variable, obtaining a third state variable by applying a torque control variable to the second state variable, and determining an assist torque to be provided by the walking assist device based on the obtained third state variable.

Presented herein are systems, methods, and devices that provide for stimulation of nerves and/or targets such as mechanoreceptors, tissue regions, mechanoresponsive proteins, and vascular targets through generation and delivery of mechanical vibrational waves. In certain embodiments, the approaches described herein utilize a stimulation device (e.g., a wearable device) for generation and delivery of the mechanical vibrational waves. As described herein, the delivered vibrational waves can be tailored based on particular targets (e.g., nerves, mechanoreceptors, vascular targets, tissue regions) to stimulate and/or to elicited particular desired responses in a subject.
