Development of a Multi-Purpose Easy-to-Use Set of Tools for Home Based Rehabilitation Use Cases and Applications developed during the REHABitation Project

Original language description

Due to the demographic change, the need of rehabilitation is rising. Home-based rehabilitation can lower the financial burden, support reintegration into daily (work-)life and increase motivation as well as compliance of patients. Several device-supported approaches for rehabilitation were investigated in the research project REHABitation. An insole-based live-feedback system to support patients performing partial weight bearing was developed and tested in a clinical pilot study. Rehabilitative games using commercial gaming control systems like the Microsoft Kinect and the Nintendo Wii Balance Board were developed for range-of-motion and balance training, respectively. For these serious games, usability was tested with the System Usability Scale questionnaire. The comparability of range-of-motion measurements of shoulder movements conducted with inertial measurement units and an optical motion capture system was elaborated. Results fo the clinical study suggest that the patients' compliance with partial weight bearing load restriction was improved with the use of the live-feedback system developed. The use of Wii and Kinect solutions is possible and helps to increase compliance of patients due to high system usability scale scores and positive feedback. The use of intertial measurement units for the detection of motion and its characteristics is highly depending on the used type of system and the intended time span of use. All these approaches were interconnected with diagnosis, corresponding exercises/assessments and tools in the web-based REHABitation database. It shall be used in future as single point of contact for therapists, patients, manufacturers and interested citizens for preventive and rehabilitative exercise and assessment planning.
