Long-term Telerehabilitation for Patients With Stroke
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Telerehabilitation for Stroke and 5 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 13 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The aim of the current protocol is to study 40 patients, each for 12 weeks, to address hypotheses related to the ability of a telerehabilitation system to (a) improve motor status and disability, (b) collect various forms of patient data from the home, (c) improve risk factor knowledge and control, and (d) assess patient compliance with home-based telerehabilitation. Patients who have returned to their home after stroke will be provided with a telehealth system and be asked to use it 6 days/week for 12 weeks, during which time subjects will use this system for daily rehabilitation therapy, assessments, and education--all on one platform.

Timeline
Interventions
The Telerehabilitation system will deliver rehabilitation treatment sessions via an in-home internet-connected computer. A major component of the system is the use of games to promote therapeutically relevant movements. The subject will perform daily assigned home-based telerehabilitation games and exercises and 5 minutes of stroke education, all guided by the telerehabilitation system.During some of the sessions, therapists will initiate a videoconference with the subject's telerehabilitation system to discuss progress, issues, and revise treatment plans as needed.
