简要总结
Telerehabilitation refers to the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to provide rehabilitation services to people remotely in their homes or other environments. By using ICT, patient access to care can be improved and the reach of clinicians can extend beyond the physical walls of a traditional healthcare facility, thus expanding continuity of care to persons with disabling conditions. The concept of telecare, when telerehabilitation is used to deliver services to patients in their homes or other living environments, empowers and enables individuals to take control of the management of their medical needs and interventions by enabling personalized care, choice and personal control Research Goal and Objectives
-
To investigate the clinical feasibility and usability of the Gertner Tele-Motion-Rehab system in post-stroke patients, in their homes.
-
To evaluate Gertner Tele-Motion-Rehab system clinical improvement within the patient's home in terms of:
-
function of the weak upper extremity
-
performance of ADL

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Motor Activity Log between 6th week and 12th week
时间窗: Third assessment (after 12 weeks)
Change in Fugl-Meyer Assessment upper extremity part (FMA)between baseline and 6th week
时间窗: Second assessment (after 6 weeks)
Short Feedback Questionnaire
时间窗: Second assessment ( after 6 week)
This is an 8-item questionnaire which queries the user's sense of presence, perceived difficulty of the task and any discomfort that users may have felt during the experience. The first six items assess the participant's (1) feeling of enjoyment, (2) sense of being in the environment, (3) success, (4) control, (5) perception of the environment as being realistic and (6) whether the feedback from the computer was understandable. The seventh item queries whether participants felt any discomfort during the experience. An eighth item queries their perceived difficulty while performing the task. Responses to the first seven items are rated on a scale of 1-5 where 1=not at all and 5 = very much. Responses to the eighth item is also rated on a 1-5 scale where 1= very easy and 5= very difficult. A total mean score for each participant will be calculated for the first six items.(Kizony et al., 2006)
Fugl-Meyer Assessment upper extremity part (FMA)
时间窗: First assessment (beginning)
The FMA assesses the motor impairment of the upper extremity after stroke. Each movement is graded on a 3-point scale, and the total score for the upper extremity ranges from 0-60 points where a higher score represents more active movements. An additional part assesses the coordination of the affected upper extremity and the score ranges between 0-6 where a higher score represents poorer coordination ability. This test is one of the most commonly used instruments in rehabilitation and its validity and reliability have been well established (Fugl-Meyer et al., 1975; Wood-Dauphinee, Williams, \& Shapiro, 1990; Chae, Johnston, Kim, \&Zorowitz, 1995).
Motor Activity Log
时间窗: First assessment (beginning)
The Mal consist of a semi structured interview for the patient to assess the use of the paretic arm and hand during activities of daily living. Two scores are given for each activity, 1 for the amount of use (AOU) and 1 for the quality of movement (QOM). The questions concern activities performed during the past week or, occasionally, the past year. Possible scores range from 0 (never use the affected arm for this activity) to 5 (always use the affected arm for this activity). (Van der Lee, Beckerman, Knol, de Vet, Bouter, 2004)
Change in System Usability Scale between 6th week and 12th week
时间窗: Third assessment (after 12 weeks)
Change in Short Feedback Questionnaire between 6th week and 12th week
时间窗: Third assessment (after 12 weeks)
Change in Motor Activity Log between baseline and 6th week
时间窗: Second assessment (after 6 weeks)
System usability scale
时间窗: Second assessment (after 6 weeks)
This questionnaire includes 10 items which provide a global view of subjective assessment of a system's usability. Each item was rated on a five-point scale from one (disagree totally) to five (agree totally). Five items are positive statements, such as "I think that I would like to use this system frequently" and "I thought the system was easy to use" and the other five items are negative, for example, "I found the system unnecessarily complex" and "I think that I would need the support of a technical person to be able to use this system." The item scores were calculated to give an overall score ranging from 10 to 100 points. The SUS has been shown by the authors to be a robust and reliable evaluation tool but its psychometric properties have not been fully investigated. (Brooke et al., 1995)
