Monitoring Home-Based Activity of Stroke Patients: A Digital Solution for Visuo-Spatial Neglect Evaluation

The possibility to prescribe home-based rehabilitation activity after stroke strongly increases the amount of exercises to perform, thus helping the maintenance of relearned skills, the completion of the rehabilitation program, the practice of physical and mental concentration. Even more important is the monitoring of the patient activity at home, as it is provided by the Remote Monitoring Validation Engineering System (ReMoVES) platform [1]. The present work refers to the implementation and integration in ReMoVES platform of a digital and web-based version of Albert’s [2] and Line Bisection [3] tests devoted to visuo-spatial neglect evaluation and its remote monitoring. A statistical analysis devoted to validating test-retest reliability is proposed. Concurrent correlation between digital and traditional administration of the tests is presented, in order to evaluate the validity of the remote monitoring of the home-administration through ReMoVES platform.
