Rehabilitation systems engineering brings technology and systems design into the rehabilitation field, improving both patient outcomes and treatment efficiency. Key tools include biofeedback devices, robotics, and AI-driven assessments that track progress and tailor therapy in real time. Engineers develop automated devices to support precise, repetitive movements, crucial for motor skill recovery. With data analytics, clinicians can adjust interventions to match patient needs accurately. By streamlining processes and integrating cutting-edge technology, systems engineering enhances accessibility, enabling more consistent, effective, and individualized rehabilitation care. These innovations help patients achieve higher success rates in recovery while also improving long-term health outcomes.
