چکیده

Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the mediannerve is compressed as it passes through the carpal tunnel of thewrist. This can be caused by factors such as obesity, diabetes, andrheumatoid arthritis. Symptoms of this disease include pain in thehand, numbness, and tingling in the areas supplied by the mediannerve. There are many treatment methods including surgery,acupuncture, endoscopy, drug injection, and physical therapy.However, these procedures can be invasive and painful and maynot be suitable for all patients. This article focuses on the use ofphysical therapy for the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome,specifically the hand opening and closing technique. The purposeof this article is to provide a biofeedback solution for thisphysiotherapy method. Muscle signals must be recorded and forthis purpose, an Arduino board is used. The Arduino board actsas the brain in the project and records the neural and musclesignals that are the result of muscle activity. This project will useArduino and Python software to implement the provided codes.The muscle signals are registered in the Arduino software, and theinformation is entered into the Python software using serial inputcommands and combined with the game. At appropriate times, thenecessary feedback is given and the hand corrects its position inthe new position.
