Abstract
- Increased physical activity has been demonstrated as a relevant treatment after a stroke, with positive effects on impairment recovery, activity limitation, social participation and quality of life. Furthermore, PA is now recommended as part of the stroke recovery pathway, starting during inpatient care and extending through rehabilitation and community integration. The purpose of this presentation is to describe how current technologies may facilitate a continuity of care for stroke survivors. We present a synthesis of 8 studies that we have conducted to date to assess and monitor the activity level of post-stroke patients at home. The results of these studies show that home rehabilitation of post-stroke patients requires the use of individualized monitoring criteria to optimize patient care. To encourage the patient to increase his level of moderate physical activity and reduce his sedentary time, it would be recommended to propose a regularly monitored and structured program.
