Abstract
A system for collecting data related to the angular orientation of a patient for use in determining the presence of pre-fall conditions may include a wireless sensor and a base unit. The wireless sensor may be attached to the patient and include a first microprocessor operatively coupled to a gyroscope and a transmitter. The base unit may include a second microprocessor operatively coupled to a receiver and a data storage unit. The gyroscope may output a signal related to the angular orientation of the patient to the first microprocessor. The first microprocessor processes the signal received from the gyroscope and transmits data related to the angular orientation of the patient via the transmitter. The receiver in the base unit receives the data from the wireless sensor and passes the data to a second microprocessor. The second microprocessor stores formats the data and stores the data in the data storage unit for analysis.
