Abstract:Validated clinical scales of functional dexterity of stroke patients provide only sparse and controlled observations of the neurorehabilitation process. Continuous naturalistic monitoring the progress during the rehabilitation therapy of outpatients remains unsatisfactorily resolved. We propose a new indicator of functional performance capitalizing on smart devices and the cloud services. The new index of limb usage balance (ILUB) derived from accelerometry data, provides an objective scalar that it is easy to… Show more
