Abstract :
As Knee replacement surgery has become widely prevalent with a high success rate in the short to medium term. However, over the long term, implant degradation may occur due to wear and tear. To address this issue, a potential solution involves using a PIC controller to monitor and compare pressure levels, displayed on an LCD. This system employs a load cell to detect stress, which causes changes in inductance. Additionally, Internet of Things (IoT) technology, through wireless connectivity such as Bluetooth, is integrated with an Android mobile app for continuous monitoring of knee pain based on the weight applied.
