Rehabilitation Technology: Assistance from Hospital to Home

Figure 4

PAMAP [36] workflow for personal physiotherapist functionality. Firstly, the user guided by a specialist performs a series of exercises to record a reference motion profile in the teach-in mode. After that, in the home trainer mode, the user must locate the body sensor network in the proper positions and then calibrate it. Finally, the user performs the proposed exercise while being monitored and warned about their movements. These data are remotely available for the specialist to make the corresponding recommendations for the continued at-home rehabilitation process.
