Successful performance of basic gestures in tablet technology in post stroke patients: A feasibility study.

CONCLUSIONS: The majority of stroke patients are able to perform the basic gestures on a tablet with at least one hand, but only few patients with a paresis could do them. Gestures like double-clicking and zooming should be avoided when designing apps for rehabilitation, as especially these were found difficult. PMID: 31033467 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
