Download or read book Novel Technologies Targeting the Rehabilitation of Neurological Disorders written by Jie Jia and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-04-04 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the gradual aging of the population, neurological disorders, including stroke, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, etc., are causing increasing distress and may even cause the loss of ability to perform activities of daily living. These disorders are generally progressive. Once onset, they may affect the entire life span with subsequent functional impairments such as motor impairment, speech impairment, swallowing impairment, sensory impairment, and cognitive impairment. Rehabilitation therapy is essential for the dysfunction caused by such disorders. Proper rehabilitation programs can improve or compensate for patients' dysfunction, and thus facilitate the restoration of their ability to daily living, help them return to social life, and reduce family and social stress.

Functional limitationsâ€"in a person's ability to eat or walk, for example.
