“…Maddahi et al [ 49 ] introduced a portable remote rehabilitation mobile platform that includes a robotic health glove developed by the researchers, a cell phone application that employs wireless network technology, video transmission capabilities, supplemented by task-oriented exercise tasks. Spits et al [ 50 ] linked a robotic assistive device (Arm Assist) to an Antari home care platform to help patients train in upper extremity function in the home environment. The therapist achieves the desired results with the help of the biomechanical data collected by the system and with remote communication and remote monitoring of the patient on the platform.…”

Our first goal is to understand the research status and popularity of telerehabilitation research for stroke survivors since 2012; the second goal is to analyze the research trends and frontiers in this field, and provide a scientific basis for the future application of telerehabilitation technology in patients with poststroke functional defects. We searched the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) for literature on telerehabilitation for stroke survivors published from 2012 to 2022. The included articles were visually analyzed using CiteSpace6.1.6R (64-bit). In total, 968 eligible articles were included in this study. In the past 10 years, the number of papers published on telerehabilitation after stroke has been increasing annually, with the largest number of papers published in the United States and Australia, with 101 papers published by Chinese scholars. Some subsets of cooperative networks have been formed among major research institutions and their authors, but the scale remains small, and academic exchanges and cooperation need to be strengthened further. Research on virtual reality (VR) technology and rehabilitation robot technology is popular, and the choice of time and intensity of rehabilitation exercises, patients’ participation in rehabilitation exercises, and care are also worth attention. In the last 10 years, research on telerehabilitation technology in the field of rehabilitation for stroke survivors has steadily developed, and is characterized by multidisciplinary joint development. Countries around the world can combine their own characteristics and advantages, strengthen academic exchanges and cooperation with mature research institutions or authors, and explore suitable poststroke remote rehabilitation technologies and service models in different environments.

“…Twenty-nine papers evaluated the use of telerehabilitation for post-stroke upper limb rehabilitation in home settings. 19,21,23,24,[26][27][28]30,[35][36][37]41,44,48,50,53,55,59,64,65,69,71,72,74,79,81,83,86,89 The recent telecommunication advancements have boosted remote delivery of rehabilitation services via the internet of things, messaging services, telephone, videoconference, and other means of communication technology. Besides the convenience and flexibility of telerehabilitation, it has been reported to be advantageous in minimizing issues such as hospital acquired infection, fatigue and travel distance.…”

“…Prominent improvements in clinical outcomes were also evidenced in 8 studies 27,41,49,55,69,79,83,85 that explored the effectiveness of a robotic device, using a computer-assisted arm rehabilitation by stroke survivors with upper limb weakness. In the majority of the studies that involve robotic interventions, significant clinical outcomes were recorded.…”

The use of home-based digital technology to support post-stroke upper limb rehabilitation: A scoping review

2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Objective To identify, map and synthesize the extent and nature of existing studies on the use of home-based digital technology to support post-stroke upper limb rehabilitation. Data sources A comprehensive literature search was completed between 30 May 2022 and 05 April 2023, from seven online databases (CINAHL, Cochrane Library, PubMed, ScienceDirect, IEEExplore, Web of Science and PEDro), Google Scholar and the reference lists of already identified articles. Methods A scoping review was conducted according to Arksey and O’Malley (2005), and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. All English-language studies reporting on the use of home-based digital technology to support upper limb post-stroke rehabilitation were eligible for inclusion. Results The search generated a total of 1895 records, of which 76 articles met the inclusion criteria. Of these, 52 were experimental studies and the rest, qualitative, case series and case studies. Of the overall 2149 participants, 2028 were stroke survivors with upper limb impairment. The majority of studies were aimed at developing, designing and/or assessing the feasibility, acceptability and efficacy of a digital system for poststroke upper limb rehabilitation in home settings. The thematic analysis found six major categories: Tele-rehabilitation ( n = 29), games ( n = 45), virtual reality (n = 26), sensor (n = 22), mobile technology (n = 22), and robotics (n = 8). Conclusion The digital technologies used in post-stroke upper limb rehabilitation were multimodal, and system-based comprising telerehabilitation, gamification, virtual reality, mobile technology, sensors and robotics. Furthermore, future research should focus to determine the effectiveness of these modalities.
