Telerehabilitation for Stroke: A Personalized Multi-Domain Approach in a Pilot Study.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Stroke, a leading cause of long-term disability worldwide, manifests as motor, speech language, and cognitive impairments, necessitating customized rehabilitation strategies. In this context, telerehabilitation (TR) strategies have emerged as promising solutions.
