RESUMEN
In spite of the growing interest verified in the field of technology-based interventions for Stroke rehabilitation, there is still no global solution that is both successful and suitable for a widespread use [1,2]. In this article, we present a novel tele-rehabilitation tool designed to be used for ambulatory patients, and developed towards the motor recovery of the patient's upper-limb. The SWORD system combines a movement quantification system that analyzes the quality of the motor task performed with a biofeedback console. The proposed structure defines the SWORD system as a complete tele-rehabilitation framework that enables a direct connection between clinical and ambulatory settings. Currently a randomized clinical trial is being designed in order to assess the effectiveness of the SWORD tele-rehabilitation system.
