Abstract
Ultimately, contemporary Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) were introduced in the rehabilitation practice. We use Exoskeletons, virtual reality, robotic rehabilitation with Locomat (Hocoma system for balance and gait training) and ThyroMotion system (for grasp training). Our purpose was to emphasize the impact of robotic rehabilitation in the process of recovery of patients with neurological complications of COVID-19, as follows: cerebral vascular accidents, spinal ischemic stroke, relapses of multiple sclerosis, Guillain-Barre syndrome, development of rare diseases (as cerebellar ataxia or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis /motor neuron disease), etc. We present typical and rare clinical cases (consequences and complications of COVID-19), treated by robotic neurorehabilitation. Our results demonstrated positive effects of ICT-application on the neuroplasticity, functional recovery and quality of life of neurological patients. We consider introduction of robotics as necessary tool in the process of neurorehabilitation.
