Digital opportunities in Scanian stroke rehabilitationMårtensson, Ellen January 2023 (has links)
Stroke is a leading cause of disability worldwide, and access to rehabilitation is crucial for recovery. This study examines the potential of digital technologies to improve the rehabilitation experience of stroke survivors in Scania, Sweden. The use of digital tools and telerehabilitation in stroke rehabilitation in Scania remains largely unexplored. Through qualitative interviews with 12 stroke survivors, 1 stroke survivor relative, and 6 healthcare professionals, this study identifies four key themes that play a significant role in the rehabilitation process: Access to care and rehabilitation, Motivation, Psychological and emotional needs, and Social support net. Based on these findings, the study proposes several "digital suggestions" to improve the rehabilitation process, including utilizing digital physio- and occupational therapy and improving alignment between various digital systems within the region. The study emphasizes the importance of individual adaptation in stroke rehabilitation, which aligns with the overarching goal of Swedish healthcare to provide patientcentered care. The findings of this study can inform future work with digital opportunities in Scania's stroke care and rehabilitation, potentially leading to better outcomes for stroke survivors.
