Title
Remote monitoring of stroke patients' rehabilitation using wearable accelerometers
Abstract
In this work, we outline an automated system for continuous assessment of patient recovery levels generically in movement-related disorders using wrist-worn accelerometers, with visualisation of aspects of recovery trends. We demonstrate our model on assessment of recoveries from hemiparetic stroke. A clinically-assessed functional recovery score from hemiparetic stroke is periodically collected alongside daily-living wrist-based accelerometer data. After accelerometer preprocessing steps, inferences on individual sliding windows are performed, followed by an overall assessment over a period of time (e.g., past three days). Using isotonic regression, excluding less relevant datapoints, and model averaging over hyperparameters further improve predictions. Through time series decomposition methods of the sliding window inferences, we visualise informative aspects of recovery patterns: overall recovery trend, diurnal exertion patterns and times of outliers in capabilities exhibited.
