Wearable sensor or stroke aid recovery: convenient and precise treatment

Researchers at Northwestern University in the United States have developed a wearable sensor in the form of an adhesive plaster to help doctors monitor the activities of stroke patients in real time, understand the effects of treatment, and facilitate the implementation of precise treatments to speed up patient recovery.

Researchers published research details at the recent annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Research subjects Lizi McCunningh himself is a doctor. He suffered a stroke two years ago and was unable to move, speak and swallow for several weeks. She told the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) reporter that the wearable sensor is attached to the body. When she is doing rehabilitation training, she will assess which muscle groups are normal and which are affected by the stroke in order to treat it more accurately.

After the rehabilitation training, the sensor will continue to send information to facilitate the doctors of Mckaning to know whether the patient is in the home, whether the walking is up to standard, whether the chat is invested, and so on. Previously, doctors could only rely on patients themselves to feed back such information.

Researchers say that during the development process, it is challenging to consolidate many electronic devices, including sensors, microprocessors, power supplies, and Wifi modules, onto a small piece of flexible material. It must also be comfortable and comfortable for users to wear for a long time. . Existing prototypes give the wearer "almost no feeling".

The research team is still collecting data. Researchers believe that this project may change the way to treat stroke patients.
