The key for successful stroke upper-limb rehabilitation includes the personalization of therapeutic interventions based on patients’ functional ability and performance level. However, therapists often encounter challenges in supporting personalized rehabilitation due to the lack of information about how stroke survivors use their stroke-affected arm outside the clinic. Wearable technologies have been considered as an effective, objective solution to monitor patients’ arm use patterns in their naturalistic environments. However, these technologies have remained a proof of concept and have not been adopted as mainstream therapeutic products, and we lack understanding of how key stakeholders perceive the use of wearable technologies in their practice. We aim to understand how stroke survivors and therapists perceive and envision the use of wearable sensors and arm activity data in practical settings and how we could design a wearable-based performance monitoring system to better support the needs of the stakeholders. We conducted semi-structured interviews with four stroke survivors and 15 occupational therapists (OTs) based on real-world arm use data that we collected for contextualization. To situate our participants, we leveraged a pair of finger-worn accelerometers to collect stroke survivors’ arm use data in real-world settings, which we used to create study probes for stroke survivors and OTs, respectively. The interview data was analyzed using the thematic approach. Our study unveiled a detailed account of (1) the receptiveness of stroke survivors and OTs for using wearable sensors in clinical practice, (2) OTs’ envisioned strategies to utilize patient-generated sensor data in the light of providing patients with personalized therapy programs, and (3) practical challenges and design considerations to address for the accelerated integration of wearable systems into their practice. These findings offer promising directions for the design of a wearable solution that supports OTs to develop individually-tailored therapy programs for stroke survivors to improve their affected arm use.
