Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Digital Health
  • Rehabilitation Medicine

Background:

  • Cognitive deficits significantly impair quality of life and are common in neurological diseases.
  • Traditional cognitive training requires intensive resources and faces accessibility barriers.
  • Efficacy of cognitive training is linked to treatment intensity and duration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a novel web-based tool for home-based cognitive rehabilitation.
  • To provide intensive cognitive training accessible at reduced costs.
  • To enable clinical prescription and monitoring of home-based rehabilitation.

Main Methods:

  • Developed 27 computer game-based cognitive exercises with adaptive difficulty.
  • Created a Web 2.0 platform for remote prescription, monitoring, and data recording.
  • Tested the system with 80 patients (memory complaints, TBI, stroke, Alzheimer's) and their relatives.

Main Results:

  • 60% of patients attended the training session; 66% had prior computer experience.
  • All patients and relatives positively evaluated the tool; 4% were uninterested in home use.
  • 39% required additional coaching, particularly those with no prior computer use.

Conclusions:

  • The web-based system demonstrated high patient and family acceptance and motivation for daily home use.
  • The tool simplifies use and enhances comfort, improving access to specialized care.
  • This innovation positively impacts human resource management and reduces rehabilitation program costs.
