中風造成全球醫療保健系統中相當大的負擔,在許多國家中位居第二至三死亡原因,即使病患可以存活,後續治療上及生活上亦有許多問題必須克服,例如身體部份運動功能喪失,將造成個人或家庭經濟以及整體健保資源造成沈重負擔,預估中風所造成的相關資源,將在接下來20年中還有相當可觀的增加。 本論文的目的是為研究及分類現在步態復康技術情況,深入了解每個技術的特點,開發一簡單的步態測試系統,幫助中風的患者進行復建,此系統界面採用LabVIEW軟體選寫並進行初步測試,並在Solidworks Simualation 中進行框架構造CAE靜力分析,顯現合理之分析結果。
A stroke, sometimes called a "brain attack", is the sudden death of brain cells due to lack of oxygen. While Stroke was ranked as the top leading cause of death in many countries, the post-stroke patients may lose the ability to do even the simplest of tasks like feed or dress oneself, walk and talk. Therefore, many stroke rehabilitation projects were implemented continuously with the hope to bring back the normal life to post-stroke patients. This research presents and categorizes the gait rehabilitation based on their functions identifying the common features and the different innovations among them. A simple mechanical gait rehabilitation training system configuration is proposed in this study, affordable for specific customers, as an effective tool for post-stroke rehabilitation process. The author composes a LabVIEW program for sytem’s user interface and the CAE analysis in Solidworks Simulation for its frame.
