Background: Preservation of mobility in conjunction with an independent life style is one of the major goals of rehabilitation after stroke.
Objectives: The Rehab@Home framework shall support the continuation of rehabilitation in the domestic area.
Methods: The framework consists of instrumented insoles, connected wirelessly to a 3G ready tablet PC, a server and a web-interface for medical experts. The rehabilitation progress is estimated via automated analysis of movement data from standardized assessment tests which are executed via the tablet PC application designed according to the needs of stroke patients.
Results: Initial evaluation of the analysis algorithms shows reproducible results for the overall time of the timed-up-and go test.
Conclusions: Therefore it is assumed that the Rehab@Home framework is applicable as monitoring tool for the gait rehabilitation progress in stroke patients.
