Telerehabilitation

The delivery of rehabilitation services remotely through telecommunications technology, enabling patients to receive therapy at home rather than traveling to clinical settings. Telerehabilitation encompasses video consultations with therapists, remote monitoring of exercises, mobile app-guided therapy programs, and sensor-based tracking of patient progress. This approach addresses barriers including transportation difficulties, geographic distance from specialists, and scheduling constraints. Accessible telerehabilitation platforms must accommodate the very disabilities being treated, requiring careful attention to interface simplicity, error tolerance, and adaptable input methods.
