This edited volume, featuring contributions from authors around the world, presents practical information on cutting-edge technologies for automated diagnoses and interventions for long-term tele-neurorehabilitation.

As tele-neurorehabilitation is increasingly augmenting traditional centralized and face-to-face rehabilitation services, in-depth practical knowledge is becoming increasingly necessary. This book therefore collates current leading research on various technologies and processes to provide readers with a holistic view of the topic. Readers will gain knowledge on the clinical effectiveness and efficiency of various technology-assisted interventions with supporting information from trials and pioneering translational studies. The book summarizes valuable and cross-disciplinary experiences and knowledges from experts in the field. Each chapter presents the theoretical backbone, implementing methods, and patient outcomes. The book is divided into three sections: first on quantitative neurological and behavioral evaluations, second on automations in rehabilitative intervention, and third on the industrialization of tele-neurorehabilitation. The overall structure flows from fundamental research in the upper stream to midstream clinical trials and finally to translational applications and commercialization in the downstream in the bioinstrumentation and rehabilitation service industries. This focus and structure will enable practitioners to facilitate patients' self-help operations in unconventional environments such as at home or in outdoor spaces, with remote professional supervision in the flexible management of telerehabilitation.

This book is an important reference book for postgraduate students and professionals in fields related to the bioinstrumentation and rehabilitation service industries. This includes biomedical engineering, rehabilitation engineering, bioinstrumentation, neuroscience, clinical rehabilitation, and entrepreneurship of medical and healthcare devices.
