Systems and methods for assessing body balance

Abstract

The invention relates to a system and method for evaluating body balance. A pressure plate is used for detecting pressure distribution on the pressure plate of the body of a subject to obtain plantar pressure information, and sends the plantar pressure information to an upper computer through a communication device; a first pose sensor is used for detecting data of the head of the subject to obtain first pose information, and sending the first pose information to the upper computer through the communication device; a second pose sensor is used for detecting data of the body of the subject to obtain second pose information, and sending the second pose information to the upper computer through the communication device; the upper computer is used for calculating the motion condition of the body centroid of the subject according to the received plantar pressure information, the first pose information and the second pose information of the subject, and evaluating a body balance obstacle position of the subject; the upper computer evaluates the influence of a vestibular system of the subject according to the received first pose information; the upper computer evaluates the sensibility of the subject body according to the received first pose information. The body balance condition of the subject can be precisely evaluated, and the evaluation efficiency and accuracy is high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical rehabilitation, in particular to a system and method for evaluating body balance. Background technique [0002] Balance function is an important function and basic motor skill of human beings. It refers to the ability of the body to automatically adjust to restore stability when the body is in a certain posture when exercising or being subjected to external forces. Various actions in daily life depend on effective Balance function. Many diseases can cause balance dysfunction, such as unsteady sitting, easy falls, difficulty walking, etc., which seriously affect the quality of life of patients. [0003] The traditional method of assessing body balance is to use a pressure sensor balance system, but the pressure sensor can only measure the movement of the center of gravity of the overall balance, and cannot know the movement of the center of gravity of a single part of the patient's body, and it reflects a c...

Many diseases can cause balance dysfunction, such as unsteady sitting, easy falls, difficulty walking, etc., which seriously affect the quality of life of patients

[0003] The traditional method of assessing body balance is to use a pressure sensor balance system, but the pressure sensor can only measure the movement of the center of gravity of the overall balance, and cannot know the movement of the center of gravity of a single part of the patient's body. Balanced impact, lack of convincing

Therefore, the traditional method of assessing body balance is inefficient
