Summary: | Stroke is one of the top ten causes of death and disability in Singapore and many
stroke patients are heavily dependent on rehabilitation services. There is an ever
increasing need for setting up better health care facilities through the means of using
telecommunication technologies.
Thus, this Final Year Project (FYP) report will be covering the motivation and
objectives of setting up tele-rehabilitation for stroke patients using the Personal
Health Information Management (PHIM) system. A literature review on telerehabilitation
and its technologies used will be provided in this report.
In addition, the software requirement for setting up tele-rehabilitation will be further
explained in this report. An analysis on the plans executed for this project and the
necessary implementation will also be given in this report. The tele-rehabilitation
software performance and discussions on the performance will be included in this
report.
Last but not least, a conclusion of the lessons learnt from this project will be included
in this report. The recommendations for future development will be provided in this
report, as a contribution to the medical community and experts for their future
research. |
