Background. Cancer is one of the most pressing medical issues and a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Developing cancer rehabilitation services is a crucial direction for the adaptation and integration of cancer patients into society. Currently, providing rehabilitation care using telerehabilitation is a promising area.
Materials and methods. Detailed in the National Research Foundation of Ukraine Project 2021.01/0136 "Development of a cloud-based platform for patient-centered telerehabilitation of cancer patients based on mathematical modeling". The key research methodology was to study the state-of-the-art telerehabilitation of breast cancer patients based on the evaluation of existing methodological approaches to rehabilitation and telerehabilitation of cancer patients worldwide.
Results. In recent years, various telerehabilitation systems for breast cancer patients undergoing cancer treatment have been implemented worldwide. The main advantage of telerehabilitation is the inclusion of more patients in outpatient rehabilitation, especially those with limited mobility and those living far from rehabilitation centers, by providing remote rehabilitation services. Modern telemedicine technologies allow real-time monitoring of the patient's exercises and loading, as well as correction of the rehabilitation program based on subjective feedback and the dynamics of the patient's state and condition.
Conclusions. International experience demonstrates that an effective complex of telerehabilitation technologies can be developed for breast cancer patients at the outpatient rehabilitation stage.
