In this study, it was aimed to reveal the results of posture measurement evaluated byartificial intelligence method, pain status and musculoskeletal disorders in individualswho have had COVID-19.
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.
Other: Physical evaluations of post-COVID-19 individuals
