Problem Identification
Steps
Highlight limitations such as lack of adaptability to specific patient needs, absence of portable power solutions, or difficulty in local maintenance, (Trochimczuk et al., 2017; Knapik et al., 2013).
Understand patient needs more accurately, such as adding an "Active Motion" feature to enhance functionality.

-
Research and Planning
-
Steps
-
Create a list of requirements the device must meet (e.g., resistance force, durability, affordability).
-
Plan for integrating features like sinusoidal pressure changes to reduce joint fluid and prevent inflammation (Knapik et al., 2013).
Prioritize requirements based on feasibility and cost considerations to ensure practical implementation.
Prototype Design
-
Steps
-
Consider incorporating a hybrid dual-limb mechanism similar to
existing studies (Trochimczuk et al., 2017).
-
Select suitable materials such as anodized aluminum to ensure
lightweight durability and modular adjustability.
Design Verification
-
Steps
-
-
Use finite element analysis (FEA) simulations to validate joint force applications and ensure safety (Trochimczuk et al., 2017).
-
-
-
Prototype Testing
-
Steps
Analyze data, such as the effectiveness of the Active Motion feature and usability.
-
-
. Include histological and biomechanical testing to validate the reduction of joint adhesions and cartilage healing (Knapik et al., 2013).
