Electrical Stimulation Glove for Arthritis Pain
This study designed an e-textile glove for Rheumatoid Arthritis patients that delivers low-voltage electrical stimulation for pain relief while also providing joint immobilization and compression. Field research conducted with patients, physiotherapists and doctors at a university hospital informed the design, ensuring both functional and aesthetic needs were addressed. This research was funded by 1005-New Ideas and Products Funding Program Grant of The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK).
