Telerehabilitation in older geriatric patient after discharge


The aims of this study are to

  • examine if telerehabilitation conducted via a real-time video conference system is feasible in geriatric patients just discharged from a geriatric department
  • investigate the association between computer usage and state of frailty, age, sex, educational level, social status and housing in geriatric patients
  • describe the geriatric patients' familiarity with technology, computer confidence, and incentives for engaging with computer technology
