A robotic rehabilitation intervention in a home setting during the Covid-19 outbreak: a feasibility pilot study in patients with stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Telerehabilitation allows patients to engage in therapy away from healthcare facilities, often in the comfort of their homes. Studies have suggested that it can effectively improve motor and cognitive function. However, its applicability ...

Telerehabilitation using a 2-D planar arm rehabilitation robot for hemiparetic stroke: a feasibility study of clinic-to-home exergaming therapy.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: We evaluated the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of a 2D-planar robot for minimally supervised home-based upper-limb therapy for post-stroke hemiparesis.

The future of telerehabilitation: embracing virtual reality and augmented reality innovations.

The Pan African medical journal
The integration of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) into the telerehabilitation initiates a major change in the healthcare practice particularly in neurological and also orthopedic rehabilitation. This essay reflects the potential of t...

Does an outdoor virtual environment projected in a head-mounted display affect balance in healthy young adults?

Journal of bodywork and movement therapies
BACKGROUND: Virtual reality head-mounted display (VR-HMD) is increasingly used for balance evaluation and rehabilitation. However, more studies must be conducted on virtual environments (VE) effects. This study aimed to assess the impact of an outdoo...

Study on the Applicability of Digital Twins for Home Remote Motor Rehabilitation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The COVID-19 pandemic created the need for telerehabilitation development, while Industry 4.0 brought the key technology. As motor therapy often requires the physical support of a patient's motion, combining robot-aided workouts with remote control i...

A Home-based Tele-rehabilitation System With Enhanced Therapist-patient Remote Interaction: A Feasibility Study.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
As a promising alternative to hospital-based manual therapy, robot-assisted tele-rehabilitation therapy has shown significant benefits in reducing the therapist's workload and accelerating the patient's recovery process. However, existing telerobotic...

Deep learning applications in telerehabilitation speech therapy scenarios.

Computers in biology and medicine
Nowadays, many application scenarios benefit from automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology. Within the field of speech therapy, in some cases ASR is exploited in the treatment of dysarthria with the aim of supporting articulation output. However...

Home-based self-help telerehabilitation of the upper limb assisted by an electromyography-driven wrist/hand exoneuromusculoskeleton after stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Most stroke survivors have sustained upper limb impairment in their distal joints. An electromyography (EMG)-driven wrist/hand exoneuromusculoskeleton (WH-ENMS) was developed previously. The present study investigated the feasibility of a...

Exploiting telerobotics for sensorimotor rehabilitation: a locomotor embodiment.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Manual treadmill training is used for rehabilitating locomotor impairments but can be physically demanding for trainers. This has been addressed by enlisting robots, but in doing so, the ability of trainers to use their experience and jud...

HoMEcare aRm rehabiLItatioN (MERLIN): telerehabilitation using an unactuated device based on serious games improves the upper limb function in chronic stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: HoMEcare aRm rehabiLItatioN (MERLIN) is an unactuated version of the robotic device ArmAssist combined with a telecare platform. Stroke patients are able to train the upper limb function using serious games at home. The aim of this study ...
