Abstract

The present work shows a telerehabilitation prototype for the monitoring of postural disorders in patients with Parkinson’s disease. The design of this prototype originated from a proposal for the identification of business ideas in medical devices. Specifically, the steps that were followed were to detect a need, formulate hypotheses about the problem and the client who faces them in their day-to-day life, then validate them through interviews with clients, to formulate the hypothesis of the solution; and build a prototype that offers value and solves previously detected needs. This prototype allows to make measurements, and eventually corrections of the postures in patients with Parkinson’s disease, using devices that can be used remotely as part of the interaction between the doctor and the patient.
