The Auto-eFACE: Machine Learning-Enhanced Program Yields Automated Facial Palsy Assessment Tool.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery
BACKGROUND: Facial palsy assessment is nonstandardized. Clinician-graded scales are limited by subjectivity and observer bias. Computer-aided grading would be desirable to achieve conformity in facial palsy assessment and to compare the effectiveness...

Smart Work Injury Management (SWIM) System: Artificial Intelligence in Work Disability Management.

Journal of occupational rehabilitation
PURPOSE: This paper aims to illustrate an example of how to set up a work injury database: the Smart Work Injury Management (SWIM) system. It is a secure and centralized cloud platform containing a set of management tools for data storage, data analy...

Effects of trunk stabilization training robot on postural control and gait in patients with chronic stroke: a randomized controlled trial.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
Our study aimed to confirm the therapeutic effects of using a trunk stabilization training robot (3DBT-33) in patients with chronic stroke. A total of 38 patients with chronic stroke were randomly assigned to either an experimental or a control group...

Role of Instruction Adherence During Highly Structured Robotic Arm Training on Motor Outcomes for Individuals After Chronic Stroke.

American journal of physical medicine & rehabilitation
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of instruction adherence on upper limb motor outcomes after highly structured intervention. A secondary data analysis was completed using mixed linear modeling design. Thirty chronic stroke survivors w...

Predictors of functional and motor outcomes following upper limb robot-assisted therapy after stroke.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
Robot-assisted therapy is an effective treatment for stroke patients and has recently gained popularity. Clinicians and researchers are trying to identify predictors to stratify patients for ensuring better stroke rehabilitation outcomes. However, pr...

Prediction of Multiple Sclerosis Patient Disability from Structural Connectivity using Convolutional Neural Networks.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Prediction of disability progression in multiple sclerosis patients is a critical component of their management. In particular, one challenge is to identify and characterize a patient profile who may benefit of efficient treatments. However, it is no...

Can Machine Learning Algorithms Predict Which Patients Will Achieve Minimally Clinically Important Differences From Total Joint Arthroplasty?

Clinical orthopaedics and related research
BACKGROUND: Identifying patients at risk of not achieving meaningful gains in long-term postsurgical patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) is important for improving patient monitoring and facilitating presurgical decision support. Machine learni...

Technology in geriatrics.

Age and ageing
Recently, the interest of industry, government agencies and healthcare professionals in technology for aging people has increased. The challenge is whether technology may play a role in enhancing independence and quality of life and in reducing indiv...

The role of robotic gait training coupled with virtual reality in boosting the rehabilitative outcomes in patients with multiple sclerosis.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
Motor impairment is the most common symptom in multiple sclerosis (MS). Thus, a variety of new rehabilitative strategies, including robotic gait training, have been implemented, showing their effectiveness. The aim of our study was to investigate whe...
