简要总结
Pain and a limited range of motion (ROM) among patients undergoing total knee replacement (TKR) surgeries are common complaints during post-operative period. Proper rehabilitation at the community set up is utmost solution for improving joint health to attain the functional level. However, the potentiality for an effective treatment was not continued at home with the use of a particular approach due to various reasons resulting in post-operative joint complications.
When subjective evaluation is not possible in patients’ house, the technology-based monitoring system need to be developed. Some gold standard technology which is portable, wearable, low-cost, accessible to all is the present need of the time by means of sensors attached to knees to measure ROM. The wearable motion sensor device (WMSD) with interactive mobile apps to monitor in-home exercise progress, through wireless telerehabilitation technology and assist in tracking the ROM for knee joint and patient compliance.
