PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus and method for evaluating the movement of a joint where a series of processing from the measurement of the movement of the joint by an acceleration signal input apparatus to the calculation of an evaluated value by an evaluated value calculation apparatus is automated. SOLUTION: The evaluation apparatus comprises the acceleration signal input apparatus (2) and the evaluated value calculation apparatus (3). The acceleration signal input apparatus (2) comprises an acceleration sensor (4) and an acceleration signal amplifier part (5). The evaluated value calculation apparatus (3) comprises an acceleration data fetching part (6), an acceleration data arithmetic processing part (7), a joint movement simulator part (8), an evaluated value calculation part (10) and an evaluated value outputting part (11). The evaluated value calculation part (10) is a joint movement function evaluation apparatus which displays the degree of contracture quantitatively. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
