1. A method of monitoring the motor function of a patient, comprising:

  • capturing acceleration data from the patient with at least a first accelerometer and a second, biaxial accelerometer located on an appendage of the patient, the first accelerometer capturing objective acceleration data, and the second, biaxial accelerometer capturing subjective acceleration data relative to at least the first accelerometer;

    wirelessly communicating the acceleration data to a personal server positioned on the patient at a location spaced from the accelerometers; and

    processing the acceleration data by computing nonlinear parameters for the acceleration data to generate at least two levels of motor function information, the nonlinear parameters chosen from the group of a maximum likelihood estimator fractal, an approximate cross entropy method, and an average amount of mutual information measure.
