Technological Advances in Neurological Rehabilitation


Neurological Rehabilitation is a formal method for the therapeutic treatment of patients with stroke or spinal cord injury, which develop severe sequelae that affect their motor and sensory abilities. Although the Central Nervous System has flexibility mechanisms for natural recovery, a high percentage of patients should receive specific therapies to regain motor function, such as Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy or Upright physical Therapy.

The neurorehabilitation has undergone severe changes due to the incorporation of computer and robotic electronic devices, designed to produce positive changes in cortical excitability of the cerebral hemisphere injured and so to improve neuroplasticity. 

Commonly treated conditions:
·         Stroke recovery
·         Spinal Cord Injury
·         Cerebral palsy
·         Parkinson's disease
·         Multiple sclerosis
·         Brain injury
·         Post-polio syndrome
·         Guillain–BarrĂ© syndrome

Equipment’s used for Neurological Rehabilitation:
·         Electrotherapy Devices
·         Apparatus for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
·         Neuroprosthesis and Brain-Computer Interfaces
·         The Robotic Lower Limb Orthoses
·         Robot for Upper Limb Training
·         Systems for Functional Electrical Stimulation 

Benefits of Neurorehabilitation:
·         Focus on Improving the Overall Quality of Life
·         Individualized, Patient-Centered Care
·         Better Health Outcomes
·         Incorporation of Many Disciplines
·         Potential Savings

The purpose of Neurorehabilitation technologies is to take advantage of the useful neuromuscular structures preserved, and they compensate or re-learn the functions that previously made the damaged areas.

Can Rehabilitation get your life back on track after treatment for a mental illness?



The treatment of mental health disorders usually comprises two aspects: the actual treatment itself, and rehabilitation. Treatment emphases on reducing the symptoms of an illness that are present in the patient. In the case of a person with fever, the goal of treatment is to bring down the body temperature.

Types of treatment:

·         Medication
·         Therapy
·         Counselling
·         Hospitalization
·         Brain Stimulation Treatments
·         Psychiatric Rehabilitation

Psychiatric rehabilitation is a part of the treatment that emphases on helping the person get back to an ideal level of functioning and to reach their life goals which are brought by providing medical, psychological and social input. There is no limit between treatment and rehabilitation.

Why is rehabilitation necessary?
People suffering from severe and chronic psychiatric illnesses such as bipolar disorder and schizophrenia may be mentally disabled by their condition and require rehabilitation to pick up basic skills. In the case of disorders such as mental retardation, a process of habilitation is followed to help patients learn skills necessary for daily functioning.

Psychiatric rehabilitation services may include:
·         Community Residential Services
·         Workplace Accommodations
·         Supported Employment or Education
·         Social Firms
·         Assertive Community Treatment Teams Assisting with Social Service Agencies
·         Medication Management
·         Programs
·         Employment
·         Family Issues
·         Coping Skills
·         Activities of Daily Living and Socializing


Psychiatric rehabilitation focuses to help individuals with persistent and serious mental illness to develop the emotional, social and intellectual skills needed to live, learn and work in the community with the least amount of professional support
