An Algorithm for Activity Recognition and Assessment of Adults Poststroke

CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: The algorithm was able to accurately identify in-kitchen activities performed by adults poststroke. Information about the quality of these movements was also successfully calculated. This algorithm has the potential to supplement clinical assessments in treatment planning and outcomes reporting. Plain-Language Summary: This study shows that clinical algorithms have the potential to inform occupational therapy practice by providing clinically relevant data about the in-home activities of adults poststroke. The algorithm accurately identified activities that were performed in the kitchen by adults poststroke. The algorithm also identified the quality of upper extremity movements of people poststroke who were living at home.PMID:38346280 | DOI:10.5014/ajot.2024.050407
