Abstract

Stroke has the characteristics of high prevalence, high morbidity, and high mortality, which seriously affects life quality of patients and also creates a huge social burden. Telerehabilitation technology is on the basis of traditional rehabilitation equipment and it integrates with cloud computing and big data technologies. It provides a new way for rehabilitation by providing comprehensive rehabilitation technology and service based on the cloud platform. Therefore, it provides a solution for the situation that the rehabilitation medical resources and the rehabilitation talents in China are relatively insufficient. This article mainly discusses the telerehabilitation technologies of lower extremity motor dysfunction in patients with stroke, the problems and the future development direction.

Keywords: lower extremity; motor dysfunction; stroke; telerehabilitation.
