Table 2 Artificial intelligence applications in different rehabilitation programs
Condition | AI-driven technology used | Benefits | Challenges | Recovery time improvement |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Stroke recovery | AI-powered exoskeletons | Improves motor function, personalized care | High cost, accessibility issues | 40% improvement in motor function, 15% reduction in recovery time |
Spinal cord injury | Robotic arms with adaptive AI control | Restores partial mobility, real-time adjustments | Training personnel, technological complexity | Faster recovery by several months with AI-guided movements |
Cognitive rehab | Virtual Reality (VR) with AI feedback | Enhances cognitive functions, gamified therapy | Requires expensive hardware, patient adaptability | Significant improvement in task recognition in less time |
Orthopedic rehab | Wearable sensors with AI monitoring | Tracks range of motion, provides instant feedback | Privacy concerns, device maintenance | Speeds recovery by 10–12% |
