The Samara State Medical University (SamSMU) of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation has created software (SW). It will allow assessing the degree of impairment of hand motor skills, the university's press service reported.
The development will help patients with neurodegenerative diseases who have suffered traumatic brain injuries and strokes.
At the moment, we have created a full-fledged IT product that assesses the kinematics of the user's hand movements when interacting with virtual objects and evaluates the severity of motor impairments, comparable in accuracy to testing by a rehabilitation physician. After that, the rehabilitation physician receives a report on the functional impairments observed in the patient, in the form of a standardized scale, for example, the ARAT test.
According to the specialist, doctors currently conduct examinations manually. This takes a lot of time and requires special equipment for diagnosis. The new software will help automate the assessment of hand motor skills impairments and prescribe effective treatment.
The development can be used in integration with simulators for rehabilitation of patients with motor function impairments created at SamSMU (ReviVR, ReviMotion, and ReviHand) or as a separate product.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that Russian engineers created a glove for restoring fine motor skills of the hands.
