Telerehabilitation Early After Stroke
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Telerehabilitation for Stroke. Completed, enrolled 19 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this research study is to assess the feasibility of initiating telerehab in early stages after stroke during patient admission to an inpatient rehabilitation facility. Patients will complete 36 sessions of telerehab 6 days/week up to 8 weeks with a telehealth system provided in their hospital room and at their home. The system will include rehabilitation activities/exercises, education, and assessments to evaluate the patient experience and measure patient outcomes at the end of a 6-week course of telerehab.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The telerehabilitation system will deliver rehabilitation treatment sessions via a secured 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 remote-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.
