PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The application’s broad objective is to create a product that is able to improve remote compliance monitoring in pediatric orthotics applications by creating a device that combines all of the ideal compliance monitoring features into a single device called the Unintrusive Pediatric Logging Orthosis Analytic Device (UPLOAD). Our initial focus is on pediatric orthotic populations due to the short treatment window and demonstrated clinical efficacy in these populations. Longer term, we can leverage the technical backbone and data ecosystem being advanced with this project for other monitoring needs (e.g., falls in both prosthetics and orthotics, more advanced AFO or prosthesis compliance requiring more than two years of battery life, cranial remolding orthosis pressure monitoring, etc.). The key focus of the proposed project is to determine the feasibility of creating a commercially available device that has all of the following features: unintrusive size, battery life that lasts at least as long as the time between brace replacements, low cost, and most importantly real time remote access to the sensor data in a way that does not require any additional hardware or effort from the parent/patient after initial setup. The specific aims of the project are to develop specifications, perform technical development of the UPLOAD system, and then perform benchtop verification testing to confirm the feasibility of the meeting the identified specifications. The research design and methods for achieving the stated objectives include requirements gathering (including conducting an expert panel) and specification document development, prototype design (including component identification, prototype hardware development, power budgeting and component selection, and alternative energy harvesting), technical development (including custom hardware design, firmware development, mobile application development with cloud infrastructure, and clinician dashboard and report generation), sensor integration method development, verification testing (including functional testing, battery life characterization and performance testing), design refinement, and management and reporting. This project is relevant to the mission of the National Institutes of Health because it applies knowledge to enhance health and reduce disabilities of patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and deformational head shapes.

项目摘要/摘要 该应用程序的广泛目标是创建能够改善远程合规性监视的产品 小儿矫形器应用程序通过创建结合所有理想合规性监控功能的设备 进入一种称为非感染的小儿伐木矫形器分析装置（上载）的设备。我们的最初 重点是由于短暂的治疗窗口而放在小儿矫形器种群上，并显示出临床效率 在这些人群中。从长远来看，我们可以利用技术主链和数据生态系统的发展 有了其他监视需求的项目（例如，属于假肢和矫形器，更先进的AFO或 假体的合规性需要两年以上的电池寿命，颅骨恢复矫形器压力 监视等）。 拟议项目的重点是确定创建市售设备的可行性 这具有以下所有功能：尺寸不深，电池寿命至少可以持续到 支撑更换，低成本以及最重要的是实时远程远程访问传感器数据，以某种方式 初始设置后，不需要父母/患者的其他硬件或精力。 该项目的具体目的是制定规范，进行上传的技术开发 系统，然后执行台式验证测试以确认会议的可行性 规格。 实现既定目标的研究设计和方法包括要求（包括 进行专家面板）和规范文档开发，原型设计（包括组件 识别，原型硬件开发，功率预算和组件选择以及替代方案 能源收集），技术开发（包括定制硬件设计，固件开发，移动 通过云基础架构以及临床仪表板和报告生成的应用程序开发），传感器 集成方法开发，验证测试（包括功能测试，电池寿命表征和 绩效测试），设计精致，管理和报告。 该项目与美国国立卫生研究院的使命有关，因为它应用知识来增强 健康并减少青少年特发性脊柱侧弯（AIS）和变形头患者的疾病 形状。
