Abstract
In one aspect, an electronic device for promoting proper use of a walking aid during lower extremity injury rehabilitation comprises at least one load sensor configured to measure a load on the walking aid. A memory stores rehabilitation program data defining at least one time interval of a rehabilitation period and, for each time interval, a target load for the walking aid during the time interval. A currently operative time interval of the at least one time interval of the rehabilitation period is identified. Data is received, from the load sensor(s), indicative of a dynamic load on the walking aid during a patient step. Based upon the received data, a peak load upon the walking aid during the patient step is determined. A user notification indicating that the peak load is non-compliant with the target load for the walking aid for the currently operative time interval is provided.
