Abstract

Günlük hareketler sırasında aşırı gerilme veya dönme sonucu oluşan eklem travmaları yaşam kalitesini bozabilmektedir. Vücudun ağırlığını taşıyan ayak bileği eklemlerinde sık görülen bu travmalar burkulma, çıkık veya kırık şeklinde ortaya çıkarak ağrıya ve hareket kısıtlılığına neden olabilmektedir. Çeşitli fizyoterapi yöntemleri ve teknolojilerini kullanımı ile bu semptomlar geriletilerek optimum nöromüsküloskeletal fonksiyonun geri kazanılması kolaylaştırılmaktadır. Bu yöntemlerden biri, eklemin tekrarlayan hareketini sağlayarak eklem sertliğini ve kireçlenmeyi önlemek için eklem cerrahisi vakalarında da uygulanan sürekli pasif harekettir. Sürekli pasif hareket fizik tedavi cihazlarının teknolojisi kontrollü tekrar, hız, güç ve açıya izin vermektedir. Bu çalışmada ayak bileği eklemi travması veya cerrahisi sonrasında sürekli pasif hareket fizik tedavisini ayarlanabilir açıda, gerçek zamanlı veya otonom olarak uygulayabilen ve uygulama ve hasta bilgilerini kaydedebilen Talus adlı bir prototip geliştirilmiştir. Hasta bilgilerinin girilmesi, hareket açıların belirlenmesi, çalışma modunun seçilmesi ve kaydedilen hasta ve tedavi verilerinin görüntülenmesi için Nextion kullanılmıştır. Bilgileri kaydetmek ve ilgili eksenlerdeki servo motorları kontrol etmek için Arduino Mega kullanılmıştır. Talus, hasta için özelleştirilmiş tedavinin evde de uygulanabilmesini sağlamaktadır.

TALUS: PROTOTYPE OF A PORTABLE CONTINUOUS PASSIVE MOTION PHYSICAL THERAPY DEVICE FOR ANKLE TRAUMA

Abstract

Excessive stretching or rotation during daily movements can cause joint traumas that impair quality of life. These traumas are common in ankle joints, which bear the weight of the body, and can present as sprains, dislocations or fractures, causing pain and limited movement. Physiotherapy methods and technologies are used to restore optimum neuromusculoskeletal function. Continuous passive motion is a method used to prevent joint stiffness and calcification in joint surgery cases by providing repetitive movement of the joint. Physical therapy devices utilizing this technology allow for controlled repetition, speed, power, and angle. In this study, a prototype called Talus was developed that can deliver continuous passive motion physiotherapy at an adjustable angle, in real time or autonomously, after ankle joint trauma or surgery, and record application and patient information. Nextion was utilised to input patient information, determine movement angles, select the operating mode, and display recorded patient and treatment data. The information was recorded and the servo motors on the relevant axes were controlled using Arduino Mega. Talus allows for personalised treatment to be administered at home.
