Telehealth and Remote Home Exercise Therapy Monitoring in Out-Patient Physical Therapy

Vidit Atul Phanse

Abstract

Telehealth has emerged as a pivotal development in the field of physical therapy, offering an innovative approach to patient care through remote monitoring and home exercise therapy. Remote monitoring is monitoring patient’s home exercise program using an application which records all the statistics giving patient a score based on the performance. This article reviews the current literature on telehealth in the field of physical therapy, discusses its effectiveness, explores patient and therapist perceptions, and examines its role in increasing accessibility and equity in healthcare. The integration of telehealth with remote home exercise therapy monitoring is analyzed, highlighting its potential benefits and challenges. Recommendations for future research and clinical practice are provided.
