“…Telerehabilitation delivery modalities included: computer-based software (Golebowicz et al, 2015;Kalron et al, 2018;Kizony et al, 2017), phone (Azma et al, 2018), and phone 'apps' (Alasfour & Almarwani, 2020;Kargar et al,2020;Nabutovsky, Ashri et al, 2020b). Three studies explored patient perceptions of telerehabilitation (Alqahtani, 2019;Bonnechère et al, 2017;Nabutovsky, Nachschon et al, 2020) and two investigated the perceptions of rehabilitation professionals (Aloyuni et al, 2020;Ullah et al, 2020). The patient studies used different settings.…”

Telerehabilitation in the Middle East North Africa Region: A Structured Review

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

A structured review using the PRISMA guidelines, MeSH keywords and eight health databases was conducted (1990 to March 2021). Telerehabilitation research evidence from the Middle East and North Africa region (MENA) was summarized. Twelve studies from Iran, Israel, Morocco, and Saudi Arabia met inclusion criteria; nearly all had been published within the past five years. Methodological quality was moderate to good in the four randomized controlled trials, five cohort-studies and three cross-section surveys. There were seven intervention studies in cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, neurology or burn rehabilitation and three patient perception and two practitioner perception studies. Narrative synthesis revealed content themes relating to rehabilitation availability and accessibility; patient/practitioner perceptions of telerehabilitation; telerehabilitation to augment traditional services; and barriers to telerehabilitation. Telerehabilitation practice in MENA has been demonstrated as feasible, acceptable to patients, and effective in practitioner-designed cohort specific programs. Practitioners are generally positive but lack experience and need training, enabling technological systems, and policy frameworks.

Telerehabilitation during the COVID-19 Pandemic: Patients and Physical Therapists’ Experiences

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Objectives: This study aimed to explore patients’ satisfaction and attitudes regarding telerehabilitation use during the COVID-19 pandemic, and to report physical therapists’ experiences with the use of telerehabilitation. Subjects and Methods: A modified Telemedicine Satisfaction and Usefulness Questionnaire (TSUQ) was used to assess the satisfaction and attitudes of musculoskeletal patients who had received telerehabilitation services during the COVID-19 pandemic. Face-to-face semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight physical therapists to explore their experiences with telerehabilitation, including the difficulties and benefits. Results: Out of 53 patients received telerehabilitation, 46 questionnaires were completed, with a response rate of 86.8%. In general, the patients were satisfied with and had positive attitudes towards the telerehabilitation services. The majority of the patients felt more involved in their care via telerehabilitation (89.2%) and believed that video call sessions were a convenient form of telerehabilitation (93.5%) during the COVID-19 pandemic. Seven out of 8 physical therapists reported the benefits of telerehabilitation (ie., reducing patients waiting lists and improving access to physical therapy care). Also, they were in favour of continuing using telerehabilitation to support the conventional physical therapy care, despite the lack of technological infrastructure. Conclusion: The patients as well as the physical therapists were generally satisfied with their telerehabilitation experiences. Using telerehabilitation in Kuwait was favoured to be as an adjunct method during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. However, with extensive training, resources allocation, and the development of local guidelines, telerehabilitation would become an effective mean for the health delivery system in Kuwait.

Background Telerehabilitation offers patients alternative access to therapy and has become more prominent during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the increasing attractiveness of such programs, there are research gaps regarding the required competencies in the demand-oriented technology use in rehabilitative care. Objective The study aims at collecting evidence on competencies required by patients and health professionals for using telerehabilitation. We analyse tasks and requirements associated with telerehabilitation and derive and systematise relevant competencies. Methods We conducted a scoping review and analysed MEDLINE, Psyndex, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science for empirical studies and grey literature from 2017 to May 2022. Articles had to be in English/German and refer to medical rehabilitation accompanied by health professionals taking place in the patient's home. Results One hundred ten articles were included, covering video conferencing systems, applications with video, audio, or visual therapy content, or wearables. Depending on the program, tasks before, during, and after therapy sessions differ, as do whether these are performed by health professionals, patients, or the technology. Users need digital, health-related, social, personal, and health professionals also professional competencies. This comprises telerehabilitation, technical, health-related, and clinical knowledge, a range of physical, cognitive, social-interactive, technical, and clinical skills, a positive attitude towards telerehabilitation and experience. Whether sociodemographic factors promote successful use is unclear. Conclusions Telerehabilitation requires a variety of different competencies from patients and health professionals — going beyond the sphere of technical skills. This highlights the need for an evaluation of existing programs for promoting competencies in the use of telerehabilitation and refinement of the programs in line with demands.
