Tele-rehabilitation versus paper-based aftercare for neurologic disorders

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This trial evaluates the effectiveness of a telerehabilitation program compared to a standard paper-based aftercare program for patients recovering from neurologic disorders. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the tele-reha group, which includes ongoing therapist support, or a control group receiving traditional care. The primary outcome is to assess improvements in independence in daily living, measured by the Functional Assessment Measure (FAM), after a 36-day intervention period. The study aims to determine if telerehabilitation can better consolidate rehabilitation goals achieved during inpatient care.
