Abstract

Rehabilitation plays a key role in the recovery of upper extremity function after breast cancer surgery. Motion capture (mocap) systems for serious gaming have shown the potential to enable home-based rehabilitation, but clinical accuracy needs to be examined. Validation of markerless mocap systems for telerehabilitation after breast cancer surgical intervention. The accuracy of the markerless mocap device Azure Kinect in detecting compensatory movements and postural disturbances has been compared to a gold standard Optitrack system in five volunteers. Subsequently, a serious game for mocap-based shoulder exercises has been developed and integrated into a telerehabilitation platform. The Azure Kinect shows good reliability for scapular elevation (ICC >0.80; MAE <2.1 cm) and trunk tilt (ICC=0.88; MAE=5°), moderate reliability for rounded shoulders (ICC=0.51; MAE=2.6cm) and poor reliability for kyphosis angle (ICC=0.22; MAE=18°). The Azure Kinect provides reasonable performance for shoulder rehabilitation. The proposed telerehabilitation platform has been tested by rehabilitation specialists and received positive feedback.
