Home-based telerehabilitation shows improved upper limb function in adults with chronic stroke

This pilot study investigates the use of telerehabilitation to improve
upper limb performance in chronic stages of stroke recovery. DESIGN: Intervention
study with pre/post/one month follow-up tests. METHODS: Seven adults with chronic
stroke participated in the study. Tests consisted of lab-based clinical and
kinematic assessments. Participants completed the Upper Limb Training and
Assessment (ULTrA) program at home. Training was 5 days/week, 60 min/day for 6
weeks with intermittent supervision of participants. RESULTS: Participants showed
improvements in the training program tasks as well as clinical and kinematic
assessments. Results also suggest there may be auxiliary benefits in cognitive
function. CONCLUSIONS: A home-based telerehabilitation program is a viable
approach to provide rehabilitation in chronic stages of stroke.
