Abstract
Our method shows promise for inexpensive and objective quantification of functional UE use in hemiparesis, and for assessing the impact of UE treatments. Training a classifier on raw sensor data is feasible, and determination of whether patients functionally use their UE can thus be done remotely. For the restorative treatment trial setting, an intrasubject test/train approach would be especially accurate. This method presents a potentially precise, cost-effective, and objective measurement of UE use outside the clinical or laboratory environment.
