Purpose: a systematic review of the scientific literature on the use of telerehabilitation technologies in the rehabilitation of children with movement disorders.
Materials and Methods. The analysis of literary sources from the PubMed database, which relate to the use of telerehabilitation technologies in pediatric practice, in particular in the rehabilitation of children with movement disorders, was carried out.
Results. The use of telerehabilitation technologies makes it possible to facilitate the treatment of children and adolescents with pathologies of the nervous system, which ensures the safety of these persons, improves coverage and ensures compliance with rehabilitation programs. Widespread implementation of remote intervention also provides children and adolescents in remote areas with better access to rehabilitation services. Modern research shows that the use of virtual reality, video games, and mobile applications as a supplement to traditional rehabilitation of neurological patients is promising.
Telerehabilitation involves the use of modern telecommunication technologies in order to provide services regardless of geographical, social, cultural and time barriers.
Conclusions. Telerehabilitation technologies are a safe way of conducting telerehabilitation for children with movement disorders. In addition, the innovative technology that is being developed also encourages the interest of patients in telerehabilitation programs. It can also be an attractive and enjoyable way of rehabilitation especially for children. In the future, it may become an alternative to physical therapy for those who are unlikely to have daily access to in-person physical therapy sessions due to a variety of reasons or circumstances.
