An augmented auditory feedback device is described. The device can be easily and economically constructed and implemented during a patient's physical rehabilitation. The rationale is to provide an external source of information to the user in order to correct errors during weight-bearing activities. Possible applications of the augmented auditory feedback device include increasing symmetry and weight distribution during sitting, standing, and gait. Instructions regarding its construction are provided, and a case study using the device is presented. Improved midline alignment and weight distribution in sitting for a 2-hour duration was achieved by a stroke patient using the augmented auditory feedback device in conjunction with physical therapy.
描述了一种增强听觉反馈装置。该装置在患者身体康复期间能够轻松且经济地构建和实施。其基本原理是为用户提供外部信息源，以便在负重活动期间纠正错误。增强听觉反馈装置的可能应用包括在坐姿、站姿和步态期间增加对称性和重量分布。提供了关于其构造的说明，并呈现了一个使用该装置的案例研究。一名中风患者在物理治疗的同时使用增强听觉反馈装置，在两小时的坐姿中实现了更好的中线对齐和重量分布。
