Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Rehabilitation Technology
  • Machine Learning in Healthcare

Background:

  • Cervical spine disease significantly impacts quality of life, often necessitating anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF).
  • Reduced cervical range of motion (CROM) and pain are common post-ACDF complications.
  • Current CROM assessment methods are subjective and infrequently used.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce the ADvanced Acousto-Mechanic sensor (ADAM) for continuous CROM monitoring in ACDF patients.
  • To develop and validate a machine learning algorithm for classifying neck motions.
  • To provide an objective tool for post-ACDF rehabilitation and monitoring.

Main Methods:

  • A skin-mountable acousto-mechanic sensor (ADAM) was developed.
  • A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithm was trained and validated using sensor data.
  • The system was tested on 12 healthy subjects and 5 ACDF patients to classify eight distinct neck motions.

Main Results:

  • The algorithm achieved an average accuracy of 80.0% in healthy subjects across various neck motions.
  • Patient data showed an average algorithm accuracy of 67.5%.
  • Specific motion accuracies varied, with higher precision for rotation and lower for retraction.

Conclusions:

  • The ADAM sensor and AI algorithm show potential as a rehabilitation tool for monitoring neck motion in postoperative ACDF patients.
  • Continuous monitoring can provide objective data to guide recovery.
  • Future integration of vital signs and other events could offer more comprehensive patient monitoring.
