摘要:
Pressure sensitive devices, systems and methods for alerting a user of movements potentially adverse to health or surgical recovery are disclosed. The pressure sensitive device may include a force sensor placed along the anterior aspect of a hand and a vibration motor in communication with the force sensor in close proximity to the user, e.g., along the posterior aspect of the wrist. The vibration motor is configured to vibrate upon the measured force exceeding a predetermined threshold. This threshold can be adjusted according to clinical application and/or user need. The pressure sensitive device may further include a memory chip or wireless transmitter for recording and relaying data associated with a patient profile, and is enabled to interface with a Wi-Fi sensing technology. Logged data may be used for patient rehabilitation.
