A Cyber-Physical System for Near Real-Time Monitoring of At-Home Orthopedic Rehabilitation and Mobile–Based Provider-Patient Communications to Improve Adherence: Development and Formative Evaluation

Abstract: Background Knee extensor muscle performance is reduced after lower extremity trauma and orthopedic surgical interventions. At-home use of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) may improve functional recovery, but adherence to at-home interventions is low. Greater benefits from NMES may be realized with closer monitoring of adherence to at-home prescriptions and more frequent patient-provider interactions. Objective This study aimed to develop a cy… Show more

“…As the elderly get older, their activity ability gradually declines, and they will spend more time indoors. Since sufficient sunshine, fresh air, and beautiful outdoor landscape will play an important role in the physical and mental health of the elderly, the bedroom design should ensure the best lighting, ventilation, and landscape line of sight requirements [19]. The bedroom where the elderly live is best equipped with an auxiliary bathroom.…”

“…Because the CyMedica NMES system (CyMedica Orthopedics) captures and reports data on the actual use of treatment in real time, it should be possible to enable the system to deliver automated mobile app reminders to remind and encourage patients to complete NMES sessions, which can be tailored based on patients' patterns of NMES use or other factors. 39 …”

“…Because the CyMedica NMES system (CyMedica Orthopedics) captures and reports data on the actual use of treatment in real time, it should be possible to enable the system to deliver automated mobile app reminders to remind and encourage patients to complete NMES sessions, which can be tailored based on patients' patterns of NMES use or other factors. 39 Although this study used a rigorous methodology, several limitations should be noted. First, patients in the low-voltage sham NMES group may have experienced a strong placebo response, which is well established in OA studies, 40 and could have obscured differences between groups; however, the placebo response is strongest for assessments of pain and weaker for assessments of function.…”
