Patent number: 11942217Abstract: A system including a range of motion, quality of sleep, overall, and control modules. The range of motion module, prior to a procedure being performed on a patient, determines a first range of motion score of the patient based on a first signal generated by a sensor. The quality of sleep module, prior to the procedure being performed on the patient, determines a first quality of sleep score or a first pain score based on the first signal. The overall module determines a combined score based on the first range of motion score and the first quality of sleep score or the first pain score. The control module compares the combined score to a predetermined threshold and predicts an outcome of the procedure based on the comparison. The control module, based on the combined score, determines whether to perform the procedure, adjust the procedure or refrain from performing the procedure.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: WARSAW ORTHOPEDIC, INC.Inventors: Randal Schulhauser, Richard L. Brown, Matthew M. Morrison, Patrick W. Kinzie, Jeffrey R. VanRaaphorst, Emily C. Byrne
