Sistema electrónico de rehabilitación para lesiones de hombro en el Centro de Rehabilitación y Fisioterapia - Fisioterapista Katy Salinas

Abstract

ABSTRACT This research project proposes an electronic system of rehabilitation of shoulder injuries because it is the most common cause treated in the Rehabilitation and Physiotherapy Centers, however for certain stages mechanical devices are still used in which the human must use its strength to achieve the expected recovery and this takes longer and work. For this purpose, an interview with the specialist Lic. Katy Salinas determined the necessary parameters for the system to meet the objectives set. The system is composed of three modules as they are; The control box, which consists of three buttons: the first one called Calibrate allows you to place your arm at the zero reference point; the second one is the Stop that stops any action that is running; and the third one Data that allows you to send all the values entered into a database that is raised on a remote server on the Internet; and the touch screen that will allow two-way communication, that is, it will send and display information; the second module is the circuit box electronic and communication that provide power to each component that makes up the system and also provide wireless communication between the ESP32 microcontroller and the Wi-Fi network, five cables were used for the communication of the three modules. 110Vac power, touch screen, buttons, encoder and PaP engine. Finally, the rehabilitation mechanism consists of the PaP engine connected to a pulley system to a reducing box that will increase the output torque in which an arm that performs the proposed exercises is connected as follows: flexion - extension; abduction - adduction and circumduction. This device allows you to reduce exercise execution times as well as to avoid specialist control as the exercise runs automatically, and it also allows you to view all data on a web page where you can consult each patient from anywhere in the world.
