Patient adherence to physical therapy regimens is poor, and there is a lack of quantitative data about patient performance, particularly at home. This project is an end-to-end virtual rehabilitation system for supporting patient adherence to home exercise that addresses the multi-factorial nature of the problem. The physical therapist and patient make shared decisions about appropriate exercises and goals and patients use a sensor-enabled gaming interface at home to perform exercises. Quantitative data is then fed back to the therapist, who can properly adjust the regimen and give reinforcing feedback and support.
