Abstract

The purpose of the present paper is to present an example of Generalized Nets application in orthopedics and traumatology rehabilitation. The model describes a possible algorithm protocol for rehabilitation treatment of patients with fracture of the proximal humerus and the different transitions of the model are representing respectively the different parts of the rehabilitation process. The proposed model can be implemented in the decision making support systems, telerehabilitation platforms, optimization of the physiotherapy protocols for proximal humeral fractures rehabilitation based on current ‘good practices’ and better rehabilitation strategies.
