Summary

A good rehabilitation program may not be accessible for all individuals living with stroke due to cost, transportation and compliance. Telerehabilitation is an alternative health care program that may help in overcoming this issue. In this study we aim to find if the use of telerehabilitation in Saudi Arabia would improve balance and walking in stroke survivors during this pandemic.
