Electronic monitoring of head position after vitrectomy
Original language description
A developing electronic monitoring system is intended to help patients with maintaining an optimum head position during the recovery process after an ophthalmologic surgery procedure called vitrectomy. In the final phase of this operation a bubble of expansive gas (SF6 or C3F8) is injected into the eye to push recovering parts of the retina together. Positioning the head correctly for a period of several days or even weeks is then crucial for achieving optimal treatment results. The designed head-mounted intelligent device continuously monitors the head position and immediately warns the patient whenever detected position is out of the desired boundaries set by the clinician. The position of the head is described by the angle of tilt in all axes. As asensing element a 3D MEMS accelerometer is utilized. Digital signal processing is used for noise suppression, tilt angle calculation and for calibrating the sensor. Position data is stored into a built-in flash memory in regular intervals
