中风是世界范围内第二大死亡原因和第三大残疾原因。中风幸存者生活在各种认知和身体问题中。更常见的是身体，如一个或多个肢体的虚弱和瘫痪，痉挛，平衡问题，言语和感觉变化。研究表明，频繁的物理治疗可以非常有益，可以实现功能的一些改善。然而，有几个因素限制了在监督物理治疗会议上投入的时间，包括：经济因素，往返医院的旅行安排以及动机的波动。本文介绍了一项研究调查虚拟物理治疗移动终端（康复教练）使用中风幸存者作为一个家庭为基础的康复系统。该研究旨在了解患者和医疗专业人员对该器械的看法以及他们对当前英国国家卫生系统（NHS）的看法。研究结果将用于改进当前的原型。
Stroke is the second leading cause of death and the third leading cause of disability worldwide. Stroke survivors live with a variety of cognitive and physical problems. The more common are physical such as weakness and paralysis of one or more limbs, spasticity, problems of balance, speech and changes in sensation. Research indicates that frequent physiotherapy can be extremely beneficial with some improvement in function can be achieved. However, several factors limit the amount of time invested in supervised physiotherapy sessions, including: economic factors, travel arrangements to and from hospitals, and fluctuation in motivation. This paper presents a study investigating a virtual physiotherapy mobile device (the Rehab Coach) for the use of stroke survivors as a home-based rehabilitation system. The study aims at understanding the opinion of patients and medical professionals about the device as well as their views regarding the current UK National Health System (NHS). The results will be used to improve the current prototype.
