- Original description
This observational study aims to assess the perception of advanced rehabilitation technologies among three key groups involved in stroke recovery: post-stroke patients, physicians specialized in Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, and allied health professionals. The study is conducted at HCL - Renée Sabran Hospital , specifically within the Kermes 2 department. Participants are selected using a non-probability sampling method, based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data will be collected using a structured, author-developed questionnaire designed to evaluate attitudes, perceived usefulness, ease of use, and intention to adopt technologies such as exoskeletons, social robots, wearable interactive devices, and biofeedback systems. The questionnaire is applied at a single time point after obtaining informed consent. This research responds to the growing integration of technology in neurorehabilitation and seeks to identify potential barriers or facilitators to its adoption in clinical practice.Read full original descriptionShow less
Perception of Post-stroke Patients, Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine Physicians, and Allied Health Professionals Regarding Advanced Rehabilitation Technology
This observational study aims to assess the perception of advanced rehabilitation technologies among three key groups involved in stroke recovery: post-stroke patients, physicians specialized in Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, and allied health professionals. The study is conducted at HCL - Renée Sabran Hospital , specifically within the Kermes 2 department. Participants are selected using a non-probability sampling method, based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data will be collected using a structured, author-developed questionnaire designed to evaluate attitudes, perceived usefulness, ease of use, and intention to adopt technologies such as exoskeletons, social robots, wearable interactive devices, and biofeedback systems. The questionnaire is applied at a single time point after obtaining informed consent. This research responds to the growing integration of technology in neurorehabilitation and seeks to identify potential barriers or facilitators to its adoption in clinical practice.
The hypothesis is that there is a significant difference in perception and acceptance of advanced rehabilitation technologies between the three groups, influenced by their respective roles, experience, and level of exposure to such technologies.
Inclusion: Patients: Patients diagnosed with stroke, whether or not they have benefited from advanced rehabilitation technologies; Physicians: Physicians specialized in Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine who manage patients with stroke; Allied health professionals: Physiotherapists, psychologists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, neuropsychologists, and psychomotor therapists involved in the rehabilitation of post-stroke patients.
Exclusion: Refusal to participate in the study; Patients who do not wish to benefit from advanced rehabilitation technology; Healthcare professionals with no experience using advanced rehabilitation technologies.
