Abstract
The healthcare industry is expected to the range of services will be expanded and management will be done throughout the life cycle by combining Big Data, Information and Communications Technologies (ICT), and IT equipment. This paper describes a metacarpophalangeal joint flexion and interphalangeal joint flexion of the thumb as one area of healthcare. Metacarpophalangeal joint flexion refers to bending the thumb metacarpophalangeal joint, and interphalangeal joint flexion refers to bending the thumb interphalangeal joint. When bending the joints, if the angle is below a certain angle, or if you feel pain, you have an abnormality. In addition, prevention and therapy of the thumb joint were also suggested. Experiments were performed on metacarpophalangeal joint flexion and interphalangeal joint flexion in the thumb joint in the case of 50 people in their 50s. The system is limited to a portion of the body, but if it is partially expanded, it will be the basis for building a Big Data healthcare system.
