Utilising interactive technology for stroke patient education: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: The paucity of evidence highlights a need for future studies to provide insights into the benefits of quality interactive technology-based stroke education and to identify options for optimal delivery modes in stroke education.PMID:36622858 | DOI:10.1080/17483107.2022.2161649

Perspectives and expectations of stroke survivors using egocentric cameras for monitoring hand function at home: a mixed methods study
CONCLUSIONS: There was high acceptance among stroke survivors regarding the use of wearable cameras for rehabilitation purposes in the future. Concerns to be managed include discomfort, self-consciousness, and the privacy of others.Implications for rehabilitationThe egocentric camera was easy for the stroke survivors to use at home. However, they expressed a preference for cameras to be less noticeable and lighter in the future to minimize self-consciousness and discomfort.Expectations for future use of an egocentric camera for upper limb rehabilitation at home from the perspectives of stroke survivors included receiving f...

Stroke survivors' experiences with home-based telerehabilitation using an assistive device to improve upper limb function: a qualitative study
CONCLUSIONS: Homebased training using an assistive device was well received by stroke patients to train their upper limb function. Future device developers should take patients' feedback into account to overcome the barriers related to the introduction of new assistive devices at home. Our recommendations may be the first step to implementing patients' perspectives during the early stages of device development. Implications for rehabilitationTraining at home was a well-received and convenient solution to improve the upper limb functionBarriers regarding hard- and software and device ergonomics need to be addressed in futur...

Enhancing neurocognitive health, abilities, networks, & amp; community engagement for older adults with cognitive impairments through technology: a scoping review introducing the ENHANCE Center
CONCLUSIONS: Gaps highlight notable directions for future research and the important role ENHANCE can play in addressing the needs and disabilities of older adults with CIs. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONAlthough older adults with common cognitive impairments often experience challenges in the domains of socialisation, transportation, and/or prospective memory, few studies exist that examine assistive technology solutions in these domains.Additional research with more robust designs and larger sample sizes is needed to discover and assess assistive technology solutions for the needs and disabilities of older adults with m...

What works and why in the implementation of eRehabilitation after stroke - a process evaluation
CONCLUSION: Main improvements of the implementation of eRehabilitation are related to professionals' perceptions of the intervention, integration of eRehabilitation and contextual factors.Implication for rehabilitationTo increase the use of eRehabilitation by patients, patients should be supported by their healthcare professional in their first time use and during the rehabilitation process.To increase the use of eRehabilitation by healthcare professionals, healthcare professionals should be (1) supported by a clinical champion and (2) provided with sufficient time for learning to work and getting familiar with the eRehabi...

Comparison of brain activation and functional outcomes between physical and virtual reality box and block test: a case study
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that an immersive VR system may be able to elicit functional and motor cortex activations that are comparable to the conventional physical BBT. Importantly, these findings highlights the potential benefits of VR therapy as a remote therapy intervention and/or to increase the effectiveness and practicality of current in-person rehabilitation programs.Implications for rehabilitationThese findings highlight the potential benefits of immersive virtual reality as a remote therapy intervention.Immersive virtual reality use has potential benefits to increase the effectiveness and practicality of...

Smartphone-based gait and balance assessment in survivors of stroke: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: Preliminary evidence supports that smartphone-based gait and balance assessments are valid, reliable, sensitive, and specific in SS in laboratory settings. Future research is needed to test smartphone-based gait and balance assessments in home settings and determine optimal wear sites for assessments.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONSmartphone-based gait and balance assessments are feasible, valid and reliable for survivors of strokeThe findings may guide future research to standardize the use of smartphone to assess gait and balance in this population.The remote use of smartphone-based assessments to predict fal...
