System and method for aiding in physiotherapy by measuring muscle activity using wireless sensors

A system for determining rehabilitation treatment of a joint, the system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory having executable instructions stored thereon that when executed by the processor cause the processor to:
• communicatively connect to a plurality of sensors attached to an individual at muscles in a joint area;
• receive electrical signals generated by the muscle from the plurality of sensors;
• generate initial measurement data by evaluating strength and activity level of the muscles based on the electrical signals;
• compare the initial measurement data with reference data, the reference data including measurements of healthy people with normal muscle function;
• and
• generate a training plan based on the comparison.

Non-transitory computer-readable media comprising program code that when executed by a programmable processor causes execution of a method for determining rehabilitation treatment of a joint, the computer-readable media comprising:

• computer program code for communicatively connecting a computing device to a plurality of sensors attached to an individual at muscles in a joint area, the plurality of sensors transmitting electrical signals generated by the muscle to the computing device;
• computer program code for receiving the electrical signals from the plurality of sensors;
• computer program code for generating initial measurement data by evaluating strength and activity level of the muscles based on the electrical signals;
• computer program code for comparing the initial measurement data with reference data, the reference data including measurements of healthy people with normal muscle function;
• and
• computer program code for generating a training plan based on the comparison.
