Emergence of Covid-19 and Increasing Adoption of Telerehabilitation Services to Augment Growth of Europe Telerehabilitation Systems Market
Telerehabilitation is the delivery of rehabilitation services over telecommunication networks and the internet. It provides rehabilitation services to people remotely in their home or other environments. There are various ways to deploy telerehabilitation, which include, 2-way real-time visits with audio and/or video communication.
Europe
telerehabilitation systems market is driven by emergence of Covid-19 in the
region. For instance, in the United Kingdom, from January 2020 to 4:48 pm CET,
24 February 2021, there have been 4,134,643 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with
121,305 deaths. Telerehabilitation enables patients to interact with physical
care providers in their own home and can also be used to deliver treatment as
well. Although some patients may prefer to continue with their primary
physician or choose a more complex and more specialized clinic, others may opt
to complete a shorter term "Telerehabilitation" appointment with a
podiatrist, an orthopedic surgeon, physical therapist, psychologist, or nurse
practitioner.
There are a number of
different ways in which a telerehabilitation provider may help a patient. One
way is through the use of equipment and devices that may be found within the
patient's home. Another way is through the use of video-based therapies that
allow the therapist to manipulate the various functions of the body. A third
way is through education and training of the patient.
Europe
telerehabilitation systems market is also driven by increasing adoption of telerehabilitation
services. For instance, in February 2021, Evolv, a medical device company, with
the support of Microsoft and hardware manufacturer ZOTAC, donated its virtual
rehabilitation technology to three leading hospitals in Spain.
Telerehabilitation can
not only be used on patients who have experienced a significant amount of
distress due to their illness or condition. It is also frequently used as a
part of palliative care, when a patient and his or her family face a diagnosis
of a terminal disease. In the case of palliative care, this therapy plays an
educational role, informing patients of their limits and possible treatments.
It is also used to educate the family members of such a diagnosis so that they
may begin planning and organizing the patient's future care.
Manufacturers are
focused on offering home-based therapy, geriatric rehabilitation, and telerehabilitation
services. For instance, in December 2020, Fourier Intelligence, a
Singapore-based producer of rehabilitation robots, launched an entry-level
linear motion training robotic device, LineMotus that targets home-based
therapy, geriatric rehabilitation and telerehabilitation
