Abstract

Stroke is a cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease that affects the aged population at a high rate. Patients’ functional disabilities can be reduced with effective rehabilitation training. However, due to a lack of hospital resources and a social yearning for family contact, patients frequently discontinue rehabilitation training sessions and return home to their local community. Such a shift emphasizes the value of home and community-based rehabilitation, where patients can perform daily training with remote support from therapists. In this survey, the technologies that assist stroke rehabilitation will be discussed in following aspects: (1) technologies for home-based stroke rehabilitation; (2) technologies for community-based stroke rehabilitation; (3) technologies for therapist’s engagement in remote rehabilitation. A comprehensive overview of technologies that support home and community-based stroke rehabilitation was presented, as well as insights into future research themes.
