Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of telerehabilitation on stroke patients through remotely operated intervention and monitoring.
Methods: Literature from 2000 to April 2018 was collected through PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and RISS. We used telerehabilitation, telemedicine, and stroke as the search terms in regard to foreign literature, and the terms telerehabilitation, stroke, and CVA in regard to Korean literature. A total of 406 foreign and 15 Korean published studies were found. As a result, a total of seven documents was selected for the analysis.
Results: As a result of the analysis, all the interventions applied through telerehabilitation were provided remotely, and significant effects were reported between pre-post assessments. In addition, the significant effects of telerehabilitation were reported through analyzing pre-post(n=7) and between groups(n=4) assessments. The monitoring used could be categorized according to purpose, that is, for checking (n=3) and as an intervention (n=4).
Conclusions: This study confirmed, within limits, that the application of telerehabilitation could be a potential alternative for stroke patients with limited rehabilitation services. In order to apply telerehabilitation in Korea, it is necessary to study the cost effectiveness, according to the current domestic situation, and confirm the most effective monitoring method based on the intervention.
