Market Overview:
Telerehabilitation systems enable remote delivery of rehabilitation services such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy using telecommunication and digital technologies. These systems provide monitoring, diagnostic, and therapeutic sessions through audio and video conferencing, delivering effective therapies.
Market key trends:
The increasing geriatric population and rising cases of chronic diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, stroke, and arthritis are fuelling the demand for telerehabilitation systems globally. As per the United Nations, the number of people aged 60 years or over is expected to more than double by 2050 and reach nearly 2.1 billion. Moreover, telerehabilitation allows continuum of care and improves accessibility of therapies in remote locations, thereby enhancing patient compliance and experience. The adoption of digital health technologies and integration of artificial intelligence and virtual reality in telerehabilitation is also creating opportunities for vendors in the market. However, lack of awareness regarding telehealth solutions and reimbursement concerns among patients and payers are some of the challenges impeding the market growth.
Market key trends:
One of the key trends in the telerehabilitation systems market is the increasing adoption of virtual reality and augmented reality technologies. VR and AR help enable remote therapy and rehabilitation services by creating 3D interactive Virtual environments. Through VR headsets, patients can experience simulated real-world activities and therapies from the comfort of their home. This helps improve engagement for post-injury patients and overall rehabilitation outcomes. With the help of motion sensors and VR simulations, patients can easily do repetitive physical exercises and monitor their progress regularly with a clinician.
