Abstract

A processing system capable of educating a training assistant, who assists a trainee when the trainee performs rehabilitation by using a walking training apparatus, in order to enable the training assistant to appropriately assist the trainee is provided. The processing system includes a determination unit and an output unit. The determination unit determines an adjustment-required parameter, the adjustment-required parameter being, among parameters that can be adjusted in a walking training apparatus, a parameter of which a frequency of adjustments by a training assistant who assists a trainee performing walking training in the walking training apparatus or by an assistant in a hospital other than the training assistant is lower than an adjustment criterion. The output unit outputs parameter information indicating the adjustment-required parameter and effect information indicating an adjustment effect that is obtained when the adjustment-required parameter is adjusted.

Claims (31)

1. A processing system comprising:

a processor programmed to function as:

a criterion generation unit configured to determine an adjustment criterion by accumulating a plurality of data sets within respective predetermined periods, each data set including at least one of raw detection data and data obtained by performing a predetermined process on detection data, each data set being designated with a level indicating an evaluation of a training staff member based on input rehabilitation data, data sets of the plurality of data sets having a designated level above a predetermined level or higher being statistically processed so as to determine the adjustment criterion;

a determination unit configured to determine an adjustment-required parameter, the adjustment-required parameter being, among parameters that are adjustable in a walking training apparatus, a parameter of which a frequency of adjustments by the training staff member, the training staff member being either by a training assistant who assists a trainee performing walking training in the walking training apparatus or an assistant in a hospital other than the training assistant, is lower than the adjustment criterion; and

an output unit configured to output parameter information indicating the adjustment-required parameter and effect information indicating an adjustment effect that is obtained when the adjustment-required parameter is adjusted.

2. The processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the determination unit determines, as the adjustment-required parameter, a parameter of which the frequency of adjustments is lower than a frequency with which a training assistant whose trainee shows a satisfactory degree of recovery make adjustments.

3. The processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the determination unit determines, as the adjustment-required parameter, a parameter of which the frequency of adjustments is low for a symptom of the trainee.

4. The processing system according to claim 1 , wherein

the determination unit determines importance of the adjustment-required parameter, and

the output unit outputs the parameter information and the effect information according to the importance of the adjustment-required parameter.

5. The processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the determination unit determines whether or not a parameter that is associated beforehand with a parameter adjusted by the walking training apparatus as a parameter that is recommended to be adjusted at the same time as the adjusted parameter is regarded as the adjustment-required parameter.

6. The processing system according to claim 1 , wherein

the walking training apparatus is configured so that a training mode indicating a training policy is able to be set, and

the determination unit makes a determination based on the adjustment criterion, the adjustment criterion changing according to the training mode.

7. The processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the output unit outputs the parameter information and the effect information to a display device for parameter adjustment incorporated in the walking training apparatus.

8. The processing system according to claim 7 , wherein the output unit outputs a video content including the parameter information and the effect information to the display device.

9. The processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing system is a server system accessible from a terminal apparatus that is used by the training assistant or provided in the hospital.

10. The processing system according to claim 9 , wherein the server system outputs a video content comprising the parameter information and the effect information to the terminal apparatus.

11. The processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing system is an apparatus incorporated in the walking training apparatus.

12. A walking training system comprising:

the processing system according to claim 9 ; and

a walking training apparatus connected to the processing system, wherein

the output unit outputs the parameter information and the effect information to the walking training apparatus side.

13. A processing method comprising:

a first determination step of determining an adjustment criterion by accumulating a plurality of data sets within respective predetermined periods, each data set including at least one of raw detection data and data obtained by performing a predetermined process on detection data, each data set being designated with a level indicating an evaluation of a training staff member based on input rehabilitation data, data sets of the plurality of data sets having a designated level above a predetermined level or higher being statistically processed so as to determine the adjustment criterion;

a second determination step of determining an adjustment-required parameter, the adjustment-required parameter being, among parameters that are adjustable in a walking training apparatus, a parameter of which a frequency of adjustments by the training staff member, the training staff member being either a training assistant who assists a trainee performing walking training in the walking training apparatus or an assistant in a hospital other than the training assistant, is lower than the adjustment criterion; and

an outputting step of outputting parameter information indicating the adjustment-required parameter and effect information indicating an adjustment effect that is obtained when the adjustment-required parameter is adjusted.

14. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program for causing a computer incorporated in or externally connected to a walking training apparatus to perform:

a first determination step of determining an adjustment criterion by accumulating a plurality of data sets within respective predetermined periods, each data set including at least one of raw detection data and data obtained by performing a predetermined process on detection data, each data set being designated with a level indicating an evaluation of a training staff member based on input rehabilitation data, data sets of the plurality of data sets having a designated level above a predetermined level or higher being statistically processed so as to determine the adjustment criterion;

a second determination step of determining an adjustment-required parameter, the adjustment-required parameter being, among parameters that are adjustable in a walking training apparatus, a parameter of which a frequency of adjustments by the training staff member, the training staff member being either a training assistant who assists a trainee performing walking training in the walking training apparatus or an assistant in a hospital other than the training assistant, is lower than the adjustment criterion; and

an outputting step of outputting parameter information indicating the adjustment-required parameter and effect information indicating an adjustment effect that is obtained when the adjustment-required parameter is adjusted.
