| Abstract | Patient adherence to home exercise regimens, critical in achieving ideal treatment outcomes for physical therapy, is typically poor. Further, therapists lack quantitative data to review a patient's performance. In this work, we propose a virtual rehabilitation system for home exercise with continuous monitoring and quantitative performance measurements packaged with a fun and engaging interface. The solution is a complete feedback loop where the physical therapist and patient make shared decisions about appropriate regimens, patients use a sensor-enabled gaming interface at home to perform exercises, quantitative data is fed back to the therapist, and the therapist is able to properly adjust the regimen and give reinforcing feedback and social support. The system aims to address the multi-factorial nature of poor adherence and to apply appropriate behavior change models and persuasive feedback mechanisms. In addition, it will capture critical objective data that will help to guide therapy practices on both the individual and community level. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
