Everything you need to know about stroke and VR rehabilitation
Recovery Tech Virtual rehabilitation & benefits for stroke recovery
While many virtual rehabilitation programs developed out of necessity during the COVID-19 pandemic, programs like Recovery Tech have demonstrated feasibility and increased accessibility to patients. Especially those living in rural and remote areas. Tele-rehabilitation is bridging geographical gaps, allowing patients in remote areas to access specialized stroke care and therapies. Mobile applications are empowering stroke survivors to actively participate in their rehabilitation journey, with apps offering exercise routines and tracking tools. Emerging technologies like brain-computer interfaces hold promise in enabling direct communication between the brain and external devices, potentially aiding stroke survivors with severe disabilities. As our studies show, stroke rehabilitation is experiencing a transformative era marked by technological innovations, multidisciplinary approaches, and a global perspective on care. These breakthroughs not only enhance recovery outcomes but also provide hope to stroke survivors and their families. Read More- Categories:
