Abstract：
Continuous Passive Motion (CPM) devices have been used to assist physicians conducting human rehabilitation; however, similar machines specific for canine rehabilitation have not been found in the reviewed literature. This research performed a physical analysis of the hind limb of dogs to design a device for implementing automated CPM exercises. The device proved to comply with the guidelines to perform CPM exercises, allowing a proper setting of parameters to generate rehabilitation routines customized for different rehabilitation requirements. Also, an electromyography acquisition module was incorporated into the system, with surface electrodes to visualize and provide feedback to the user for muscle activation. Limitations were encountered with a range of motion of 80° and an error of approximately 2% for angular position accuracy.
摘要：
连续被动运动（CPM）设备已被用于协助医生进行人体康复；然而，在综述的文献中没有发现类似的专门用于犬康复的机器。这项研究对狗的后肢进行了物理分析，以设计一种用于实施自动CPM练习的设备。该设备被证明符合执行CPM练习的指南，允许适当设置参数以生成针对不同康复要求定制的康复例程。此外，系统中加入了肌电图采集模块，与表面电极可视化，并提供反馈给用户的肌肉激活。在80°的运动范围和大约2%的角位置精度误差的情况下遇到限制。
