Autonomy-based rehabilitation design: balancing capability and complexity

Autonomy is critical to harness post-stroke patient's motivation in an unsupervised home-based rehabilitation programme. The aim of this study is to share our experiences of designing the home-based rehabilitation platform for post-stroke patients, RehabMaster, particularly for, what kinds of autonomy supports should be of value for the post-stroke patients. Usefulness of the autonomy-based rehabilitation design was studied by a two-week home-based rehabilitation session with sixteen post-stroke patients and further design issues for autonomy were discussed.
