Effects of COVID on posture

Details and patient eligibility

About

In this study, it was aimed to reveal the results of posture measurement evaluated by artificial intelligence method, pain status and musculoskeletal disorders in individuals who have had COVID-19.

Full description

Thanks to artificial intelligence and machine learning technology, evaluations such as balance and foot pressure measurement can be made in patients today, as well as applications such as exercise and patient follow-up in rehabilitation, solutions to biomedical problems can be offered. Artificial intelligence and machine learning will continue to play an important role in education, training, patient care and research in the future. On the other hand, although various psychological and physical problems have been shown in individuals who have had COVID-19 during the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic process, musculoskeletal disorders and posture problems in these individuals remain unclear. For this reason, in this study, it was aimed to reveal the results of posture measurement evaluated by artificial intelligence method, pain status and musculoskeletal disorders in individuals who have had COVID-19.
