ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: This study analyzed the impact of AI and biosensors on physical therapy, identifying the stage of customized technology development and future prospects. AI and biosensors improve the efficiency, establish customized treatment plans, and expand patient treatment opportunities. The study employed a literature review by searching databases and collecting research. METHODS: This study searched various databases related to the topic, collected existing research, papers, and reports, evaluated the literature, and summarize the results. RESULTS: Exercise therapy utilizing artificial intelligence can provide personalized and optimal exercise plans while monitoring rehabilitation progress. In addition, biosensors such as EMG sensors and accelerometers can monitor the individual progress in physical therapy, particularly in stroke patients, which can help improve physical therapy strategy and promote patient recovery. CONCLUSION: This study suggested that artificial intelligence can be applied in many areas of physical therapy, such as exercise therapy, customized treatment plans, rehabilitation and management, pain management, neuro rehabilitation, and auxiliary devices. Using AI technology, it is possible to analyze and improve exercise and posture, retrain the central nervous system, establish customized treatment plans for individual patients, predict and compare patient progress before and after treatment, and provide customized pain analysis and treatment methods. In addition, AI can provide neuro rehabilitation programs and customized auxiliary devices.
