This week, we continued to reach out to others to better understand the problem. Katelyn had success in a Facebook group for pediatric physical therapy, finding several people willing to talk about their experiences with head drop, as well as with the CTO of Opter, who offered some information regarding the measurement process that their posture device used. Katie Lammers, a physical therapist, was also contacted regarding the effectiveness of different forms of biofeedback as well as general day-to-day problems that people with CP may face. We are also now in communication with Melissa Reddington, an OT in Francis Howell school district. Hopefully the feedback we get from these people will help us construct our Pugh chart for biofeedback types.
We also continued doing research on the specs of different sensors in order to make our Pugh chart for that component of our project. We are dividing our Pugh chart into several parts - the sensor, the feedback type, the component that will analyze and export the information from the sensor, and the overall device that will contain the other components. We are planning to begin writing our paper this weekend, with the goal of having it mostly written by Thanksgiving. Comments are closed.
