Abstract:

Objective To explore the effects of home-based telerehabilitation guidance on physical function and activities of daily living for stroke patients.

Methods From September, 2015 to March, 2018, 240 stroke recovering patients from three community health service centers in Fengtai District, Beijing for outpatient rehabilitation were randomly divided into control group (n = 120) and tele-rehab group (n = 120). Both groups accepted routine rehabilitation for six months, while the tele-rehab group received telerehabilitation guidance in addition. They were assessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) and modified Barthel Index (MBI) before and after treatment.

Results The scores of FMA and MBI improved after treatment in both groups (|t| > 14.536, P< 0.001), and improved more in the tele-rehab group than in the control group (|t| > 2.200, P< 0.05).

Conclusion Home-based telerehabilitation guidance may enhance the effect of community-based outpatient rehabilitation for stroke patients.
