La Universitat Metropolitana de Manchester cerca socis
La Universitat Metropolitana de Manchester ha publicat una cerca de socis al Portal Idea-list, per a un projecte de recerca anomenat "Visually-mediated Rehabilitation for Stroke and Spinal Cord Injuries", per a la convocatòria 7
d'ICT (FP7-ICT-2011-7) del Setè Programa Marc europeu,
que tancarà el termini de presentació de propostes el proper 18 de
gener de 2011. En concret, cerquen el següent perfil: Hospital / university with an interest in engineering for neurological injury.
Subject: Patients who have suffered a stroke or injury to the spinal cord require rehabilitation therapy and assessment of progress under the supervision of specialist physiotherapists, nurses and hospital doctors. The therapies involve the repetition of a range of exercises targeting the contraction and coordination of specific muscle groups relevant for recovery. In this project we seek to investigate techniques based on combinations of real-time ultrasound image analysis, marker-less motion capture techniques, electromyography (EMG), biofeedback and computer games in order to develop a tele-supervision system for efficient remote monitoring and management of neurological rehabilitation therapies without compromising patient care.
Description of work to be carried out by the partner(s) sought:
PROFILE 2: Clinical Trials & Evaluation Studies: The project should be able to demonstrate working prototypes via a series of clinical trials and evaluation studies in order to ensure the efficacy of the system and its benefits. The partner will work in parallel with other consortium members (some of whom have similar access to patients) both to test and develop the system and also to formalization of the information requirements of neurological rehabilitation.
