Rehabilitation Technology: Assistance from Hospital to Home

الملخص EN

Rehabilitation is essential for disabled people to achieve the highest level of functional independence, reducing or preventing impairments.

Nonetheless, this process can be long and expensive.

This fact together with the ageing phenomenon has become a critical issue for both clinicians and patients.

In this sense, technological solutions may be beneficial since they reduce the costs and increase the number of patients per caregiver, which makes them more accessible.

In addition, they provide access to rehabilitation services for those facing physical, financial, and/or attitudinal barriers.

This paper presents the state of the art of the assistive rehabilitation technologies for different recovery methods starting from in-person sessions to complementary at-home activities.
