Background of the Invention
US9445720B2: A system (800) for processing accelerometer data is disclosed. The system (800) includes an accelerometer (806), a first processor (810), a power supply (816), and a second processor (804). The accelerometer (806) measures a physiological acceleration parameter. The first processor (810) is operatively connected to the accelerometer (806). The first processor (810) is configured to receive the acceleration parameter from the accelerometer (806) and configured to output machine readable acceleration data. The machine readable acceleration data includes time domain accelerometer data. The power supply (816) is electrically connected to the first processor (810). The second processor (804) is configured to receive the machine readable acceleration data and transform the time domain accelerometer data into frequency domain accelerometer data. The frequency domain accelerometer data may be used to estimate patient healing status.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts, in a simplified format, that are further described in the detailed description of the invention. This summary is neither intended to identify key or essential inventive concepts of the invention and nor is it intended for determining the scope of the invention.
To further clarify advantages and features of the present invention, a more particular description of the invention will be rendered by reference to specific embodiments thereof, which is illustrated in the appended drawings. It is appreciated that these drawings depict only typical embodiments of the invention and are therefore not to be considered limiting of its scope. The invention will be described and explained with additional specificity and detail with the accompanying drawings.
A person met with an accident suffers a simple or a complex fracture which requires an orthopedic cast to align the bone and promote the healing. The patient may attract a infection on the cast if there is an open wound or had a traumatic surgery. The cast creates a warm and moist environment which is suitable for the bacterial growth and the patient may feel discomfort and pain along with a foul odor which cannot be detected early and the treatment of the patient gets delayed. This delay causes slow healing and the condition can get worse.
This invention is consists of the controlling unit, bluetooth module, offline storage, nano-mechanical biosensor, battery and plater imaging device. In our proposed system, nano-mechanical biosensors will be installed inside of the fiber plaster, and this sensor will be monitoring the bacterial growth of the wound, inside of the plaster. The controlling unit will be collecting data from nano-mechanical biosensor and store it in the offline storage. Whenever the user will go to the hospital for their regular check-up, the doctors will simply connect their plaster imaging device with the user’s plaster using Bluetooth module, then the controlling unit will take all the data from offline storage and send it to the plaster imaging device with the help of Bluetooth module. Then the doctor will be able to see the data of bacterial growth on their plaster imaging device. Battery will be powering the controlling unit, nano-mechanical biosensor, offline storage and bluetooth module.
