Usage of an Exercise App in the Care for People With Osteoarthritis: User-Driven Exploratory Study

Usage of an Exercise App in the Care for People With Osteoarthritis: User-Driven Exploratory Study

In our case, we wanted to redesign the technology to meet the needs of the users, and therefore, we first explored how the users experienced problems related to their OA and rehabilitation. Then, the participants were invited to test and redesign by transforming the participants from merely informants to participants.

Telerehabilitation: Review of the State-of-the-Art and Areas of Application

Telerehabilitation: Review of the State-of-the-Art and Areas of Application

Rehabilitation is an old branch of medicine, but in the last few years, new telecommunication-based practices have been developed all over the world. These particular approaches in the field of rehabilitation are commonly defined as telerehabilitation, which should be considered as a telemedicine subfield consisting of a system to control rehabilitation at a distance [3].

A Technology System to Help People With Intellectual Disability and Blindness Find Room Destinations During Indoor Traveling: Case Series Study

A Technology System to Help People With Intellectual Disability and Blindness Find Room Destinations During Indoor Traveling: Case Series Study

Their traveling was typically combined with transporting (carrying) objects to those room destinations and thus represented a functional form of activity, which was largely appreciated within the participants’ rehabilitation and care contexts [38,39].

Taxonomy for the Rehabilitation of Knee Conditions (TRAK), a Digital Intervention to Support the Self-Care Components of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Rehabilitation: Protocol of a Feasibility Study

Taxonomy for the Rehabilitation of Knee Conditions (TRAK), a Digital Intervention to Support the Self-Care Components of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Rehabilitation: Protocol of a Feasibility Study

Surgery is still the most common way to manage these patients and rehabilitation is essential [1-5] for “maximizing potential for patients to live a full and active life within their family, social networks, education/training and the workplace where appropriate” [5]. The optimal way for delivering rehabilitation is not clear, and current methods vary widely across the world [6-8]. Evidence for treatments is much discussed in the literature.

Advanced Technology in a Real-World Rehabilitation Setting: Longitudinal Observational Study on Clinician Adoption and Implementation

Advanced Technology in a Real-World Rehabilitation Setting: Longitudinal Observational Study on Clinician Adoption and Implementation

Such interventions have potential to help address the growing need for rehabilitation worldwide [2,3]. Within rehabilitation, this may involve devices such as virtual reality, robotics, smartphone apps and activity trackers [4]. While evidence is emerging, research has shown digital interventions can improve patient outcomes (eg, in mobility and upper limb function) [5-9], improve patient engagement in rehabilitation [10-13], and increase therapy dosage [6,14,15].

Virtual Reality–Applied Home-Visit Rehabilitation for Patients With Chronic Pain: Protocol for Single-Arm Pre-Post Comparison Study

Virtual Reality–Applied Home-Visit Rehabilitation for Patients With Chronic Pain: Protocol for Single-Arm Pre-Post Comparison Study

As many homebound patients are unable to visit medical institutions, home rehabilitation is important. Unlike medical institutions, patients’ homes are not optimal environments for engaging in effective rehabilitation programs. As a result, patients find it difficult to engage in rehabilitation and are more likely to lose their motivation [10]. Maintaining motivation is more difficult when the home rehabilitation session is prolonged [11].

Patient Engagement in a Mobile App–Based Rehabilitation Program for Total Hip or Knee Arthroplasty: Secondary Data Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial

Patient Engagement in a Mobile App–Based Rehabilitation Program for Total Hip or Knee Arthroplasty: Secondary Data Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial

Patients after THA and TKA require rehabilitation to relieve pain, enhance muscle strength, improve mobility, optimize functional outcomes such as walking, and improve health-related quality of life [2,3]. However, patients may have difficulty accessing face-to-face rehabilitation services after arthroplasty due to the geographic distance from rehabilitation facilities or lack of local health resources [4].

Feasibility of At-Home Hand Arm Bimanual Intensive Training in Virtual Reality: Case Study

Feasibility of At-Home Hand Arm Bimanual Intensive Training in Virtual Reality: Case Study

Overall, actigraphy in the context of movement analysis offers a noninvasive and objective method for monitoring physical activity and movement patterns, which can be valuable for various research, clinical, and rehabilitation purposes. The automation of difficulty scaling was achieved through real-time participant performance tracking. Each attempt at the designated task, launching a rocket, was recorded by the software.

Impacts of Telehealth Adoption on the Quality of Care for Individuals With Serious Mental Illness: Retrospective Observational Analysis of Veterans Affairs Administrative Data

Impacts of Telehealth Adoption on the Quality of Care for Individuals With Serious Mental Illness: Retrospective Observational Analysis of Veterans Affairs Administrative Data

Eight measures assessing access to care and care continuity for individuals with SMI were examined: (1) engagement with primary care (PC; ie, assigned to PC provider and ≥1 PC visit within the last year); (2) access to psychotherapy or psychosocial services (ie, proportion of patients with SMI who visited ≥1 psychotherapy or psychosocial rehabilitation within the last year); (3) continuity (ie, 5 psychotherapy or psychosocial rehabilitation visits within 10 weeks); access to care within 2 SMI specialty programs
