About

Stroke is one of the most prevalent pathologies worldwide and its consequences require long-term treatment. The current situation caused by the Sars-cov-2 virus has collapsed health systems and has delayed these patient's treatment. The proposed alternative is telerehabilitation: a treatment system that has already proved its effectiveness. However, the difficulty to assess the stroke patient's functional status is the great problem. For this reason, a Fugl Meyer Assessment Scale adaptation, one of the most widely used (in research and in clinic), is proposed to be carried out remotely. The objective of our study is to validate this scale in stroke patients.
