Integration of step counters in neuro-motion rehabilitation: From the selection of the technologies in a kit to the guidelines

Abstract

In neuro-motion rehabilitation it is important for the subjects to plan a neural and motion rehabilitation program at home. Telerehabilitation could represent a valid aid for subjects involved in a rehabilitation process at home. Motion and neural rehabilitation are strictly correlated. Prompt motion rehabilitation is essential to ensure good recovery performance. Remote therapy, which involves a tele-rehabilitation program, should monitor daily motion activity. The integration of step-counters in the process could improve the care, providing daily quantitative measurements. Three different step counters (a) have been proposed and (b) integrated in a kit (c) with a study aimed at designing a guideline for the optimal assignment on the basis of the pathology.
