Paralysis is a condition in which the muscle function is lost in a part of the body. Paralysis is mainly caused as a result of severe stroke, where in the blood supply to a part of the brain is cut off. Hemiplegiais a type of paralysis which affects half of the body includes one arm and one leg on the same side of the body. The case of left Hemiplegia is taken into account, which is caused by the absence of blood supply to the righthemisphere of the brain. Stationary systems like Lokomat, used in the rehabilitation centres to assist training, provide highly repetitive action and just assistance to the patient’s capabilities while walking on a treadmill. However these systems are not portable and cannot be used for home or daily activities. To overcome this, this paper presents the rehabilitation system, which comprises of an exoskeleton that aids the movement of the left upper limb. The entire system is driven by a motor through a microcontroller system which assists patient’s flexion and extension movements. Meanwhile, EMG signal can be recorded by placing surface electrodes to know the recovery of physiological motor function.

Electrogastrography is a pain free diagnosing method for evaluating stomach myoelectric activity. People are drawn to EGG because it is painless diagnostic procedure. However, given to its non-invasive characteristics, there has been significant debate about the validity and applicability of EGG. The major goal of this project is to decouple the electrode-equipment probe connection. This enhances the patient’s mobility (infant, athlete, handicapped) while lowering probe-to-electrode misconnection. This portable electrode system allows physicians and nurses to examine data of a patient from a distance, decreasing the need for them to be physically present behind the subject for examination. The signal capture, data acquisition unit and communication interface with the Wireless Fidelity module are utilized to quantify stomach activity. Arduino is used to take an analogue signal and convert it to a digital value. The Arduino programming language is used to build the programmers, which are subsequently embedded in the board. As a consequence, the value retrieved from the Electrogastrograph module is transferred over Wireless Fidelity module to the thing speak online platform. Arduino accepts an analogue signal and transforms it to a digital value. The Arduino programming language is used to build the applications, which are subsequently incorporated into the board. As a result, the value retrieved from the EGG module is transferred through Wireless Fidelity module to thing speak online platform.
