3-D kinematics and neuromuscular signals' integration for post ACL reconstruction recovery assessment.

An intelligent recovery classification and monitoring system (IRCMS) for post Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction has been developed in this study. This system provides an objective assessment and monitoring of the rehabilitation progress by integrating 3-D kinematics and neuromuscular signals recorded through wearable motion and electromyography sensors, respectively. The data from a group of healthy and ACL reconstructed subjects were collected for normal/brisk walking (4-6km/h) and single leg balance (eyes open and eyes closed) testing activities.
