Challenges of tele-rehabilitation in children with disabilities in initial education

Abstract

<p>This research deals with the tele-rehabilitation service for children with disabilities in a post-Covid-19 era. There has been a boom with new working models and adaptation to new challenges and experiences of professionals in rehabilitation therapies. With such services as the most effective way to treat psychomotor deficits in children with disabilities, Rehabilitation Centers have reconfigured their planning by offering hybrid care, but there is a lack of integration of ICT for the delivery of these services through agile approaches. Under an Action-Design methodology, a survey was designed and applied to therapists from five Rehabilitation Centers in Mexico; focused on knowing four relevant aspects: Rehabilitation Teleworking; ICT in therapeutic activity; Communication between parents and Rehabilitation centers; and Patients. From the result, it can be inferred that there is a high level of interest at THE initial education in technological training and a need for higher quality stimulation tools and resources.</p>

Application of Modern Information Technology in Remote Rehabilitation Training System

“…Remote rehabilitation training for children is an emerging means of rehabilitation, but currently there is still a lack of a relatively complete technical system to support the rapid development of this field [8]. The remote rehabilitation training system for children established using modern information technology and methods can integrate psychological intervention, health education, and auxiliary treatment, providing patients with comprehensive services, alleviating their pain, enhancing their confidence and self-esteem, and enabling them to quickly overcome disease difficulties [9]. Compared with general rehabilitation training, this system can not only achieve the entire process from basic to clinical and then to back-end development, but also adjust or stop some functional operations at any time according to the needs of the condition, improve the efficacy while ensuring safety and effectiveness, and provide targeted guidance for children of different ages.…”
