Various studies support early mobilization of the elbow joint after injury or after surgery to reduce risks of elbow stiffness development. After hospitalization, patients are required to follow a long-term rehabilitation program during home recovery. Still, most patients do not adhere to their clinical therapy schedule due to either rehabilitation cost, social obligations, negligence, or lack of inspiration. Moreover, the numbers of therapists and assessment equipment are insufficient. This study introduces a smart elbow brace (SEB) as a home-based rehabilitation device that reduces regular in-patient rehabilitation costs and therapist workload and motivates patients to comply with the rehabilitation program that enhances the achievement of rehabilitation goals. Our device has two active degrees of freedom (2-DoF) that allow extension, flexion, pronation, and supination elbow motions. An extra sliding joint between forearm and wrist is added, which helps dump forces concentration at the elbow joint during extension-flexion movement. Mechanical design requirements, motion-tracking systems, and serious game development are described. The feasibility of a proposed SEB device is tested with five healthy subjects playing developed serious games with the device. The results show that subjects can attain maximum and minimum angles of flexion-extension and pronation-supination motion designed for elbow stiffness rehabilitation. The SEB device will be beneficial and be used at home as a complementary tool to support elbow stiffness rehabilitation during long-term home recovery.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2022\/3754931","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,17]],"date-time":"2022-06-17T00:35:24Z","timestamp":1655426124000},"page":"1-12","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Design of a Smart Elbow Brace as a Home-Based Rehabilitation Device"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2022","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6211-2740","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ramadhan Rashid","family":"Said","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Life Science and Technology, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wang Quan","family":"Yong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Life Science and Technology, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5307-9582","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Md Belal","family":"Bin Heyat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"IoT Research Center, College of Computer Science and Software Engineering, Shenzhen University, Shenzhen, China"},{"name":"International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad, Telangana 500032, India"},{"name":"Department of Science and Engineering, Novel Global Community Educational Foundation, Hebersham, NSW 2770, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3095-7271","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Liaqat","family":"Ali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Science and Technology Bannu, Bannu, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Song","family":"Qiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Chengdu Technology University, Chengdu, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9998-9183","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Arif","family":"Ali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science, University of Science and Technology Bannu, Bannu, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hafiz Tayyab","family":"Rauf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Smart Systems, AI and Cybersecurity, Staffordshire University, Stoke-on-Trent, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3048-9615","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Zhe","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Life Science and Technology, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/17453679608997771"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1758-5740.2011.00167.x"},{"issue":"6","key":"3","article-title":"Post-traumatic stiffness and malunion after supracondylar humerus fracture in an adolescent patient","volume":"31","author":"M.
