WristTrack? A Mobile Healthcare Surveillance System for Wrist Recovery Exercises

Physiotherapy is an important component for injury recovery. Progressive exercises can help in facilitating recovery when executed correctly, but it can cause damaging effects when done wrongly. However, not all patients are able to make it to the hospital every time due to reasons such as post-surgery immobility. This study introduces a self-served physiotherapy system for wrist exercises (i.e., WristTrack), allowing patients to perform wrist conditioning at their own time and place of convenience. The system integrates wearable devices with mobile and web platform, to capture, visualize and provide useful metrics for both doctors and patients to make steady progression in their recovery process
