Monitoring rehabilitation system for the cervical spine based on computer software / 中国组织工程研究

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Conventional rehabilitation evaluation call not provide more objective data for analysis,so all innovative method to monitor rehabilitation of the cervical spine is introduced.OBJECTIVE:The monitoring rehabilitation system of the cervical spine develops independently under Visual Basic 6.0 environment.It can gather both video and photos at dynamic and static states.According to the suitable feature points of the video,the system could calculate characteristic parameters,such as moving angles,distances,speed,acceleration,and integral curves.Thus,the system could create patients'database.RESULTS:The system could calculate different kinds of patients'characteristic parameters through data recording.Through the objective comparison of characteristic parameters,the turning flexibility of head and controlling capability for head turning could be reflected.CONCLUSl0NThe design is an innovation in the monitoring rehabilitation systems of the cervical spine.It makes up the shortcomings of conventional rehabilitation evaluation and objectively reflects the rehabilitation status of patients.
