Abstract :
Miniaturized and integrated onto smart clothing sensors are more likely to be accepted by patients, thus enhancing healthcare in both hospital and home environments. Our research focuses on the development of a patient-centred, multi-sensing platform for a smart garment for knee functional monitoring capable of assessing a patient´s activities in their daily environment, providing clinicians with objective markers of performance and assisting in devising customised rehabilitation strategies.
