Intensity : what rehabilitation technology can add to the subject

Evidence more and more supports the notion that higher intensity training also leads to better outcomes in neurorehabilitation. However, current practice shows that for many reasons, it is challenging for health care professionals to deliver such high intensity training. Rehabilitation technology can be one important factor to help overcome those barriers and to provide to our patients the intensive therapy they need and deserve. It is, however, crucial that those devices are well integrated into the clinical every day practice, well combined with traditional therapy and that reimbursement questions are solved. The work is cut out for us, let’s all get to work, for the benefit of our patients!
