Cognitive and Gait Cycle Evaluation with Rehabilitation in Veterans Affected by Combat Causalities and Trauma Using Prosthetics and Artificial Intelligence

Abstract

Context: In war field, the causalities and trauma occurred modifies the gait cycle and causes problems in cognitive functions. The injury may cause critical problems like Altered mental status, Fever, Increased heart rate, generalized edema, The cognitive behaviors will drastically change in the person, the causes may be traumaticObjective: In this work a design of an equipment for cognitive skills determination using EEG signal analysis is made. The rehabilitation of cognitive skills is to be done by Augmentation and virtual reality based Cogni tive-behavioral therapy or CBT system.

Methods: The work is to recognize and analysis the human gait from different approaches: image processing, f loor sensors and sensors placed on the body. In method 1 , Analog or digital cameras are to be used along with lazer range scanners (LRS), infrared sensors and Time-of-Flight (ToF) cameras. In method 2 wearable sensors located on several parts of the body, such as feet, knees, thighs or waist is used for gait analysis. The walking deviation can be studied by the gait analysis protocol through Biomechanical 3D modelling using Image Processing. gait analysis protocol analyses the pelvis, hip, knee, foot & ankle motion during the entire gait cycle using Tread Mill test. For functional and physical deformity exoskeleton, prosthetics and orthotics design and development is to be done. For functional electrical stimulation, designs combining Embedded, Nanoelectronics and circuits were done. Implants and orthotics devices were designed for the partial support or organs which have functional problems. Software is to be developed for data handling, radiology scan analysis, storage and do all analysis. Artificial intelligence is to be applied for analysis of images like MRI, CT and Xray.
