COGTEL: The Cognitive Telephone Screening Instrument (EN)
TYPE OF TOOL: Test Battery.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed for clinicians.
BASIC DESCRIPTION: Provides a detailed assessment of performance in six cognitive domains (prospective, short-term, long-term, and working memory, verbal fluency, and inductive reasoning) using tests adopted from well-established neuropsychological instruments such as the Wechsler scales.
Creyos Health (EN)
TYPE OF TOOL: Web-based neurocognitive battery.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed for clinicians and researchers.
BASIC DESCRIPTION: Provides 12 cognitive tests that assess a broad range of cognitive abilities in three cognitive domains: reasoning skills, short-term memory, and verbal processing.
DIGICOG-MS (EN)
by AISM Foundation
TYPE OF TOOL: Mobile app.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed for clinicians and clients (in Italy).
BASIC DESCRIPTION: Provides a digital self-assessment system of cognitive functioning most affected by MS, such as information processing speed, verbal and visuospatial memory, and language.
FSTAC: Functional Standardized Touchscreen Assessment of Cognition (EN)
TYPE OF TOOL: Web-based neurocognitive battery.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed for clinicians and researchers.
BASIC DESCRIPTION: Provides a self-administered cognitive screen to assess functional task ability and the associated cognitive domains.
Improving Functional Communication Outcomes in Post-Stroke Aphasia via Telepractice: An Alternative Service Delivery Model for Underserved Populations (EN)
by Carr, P., Moser, D., et al.
December 13, 2022
TYPE OF TOOL: Research Article.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed to inform clinicians, researchers, and educators.
BASIC DESCRIPTION: All participants demonstrated improvements in CCRSA scores, total words produced correctly on trained CST stimuli, and total words produced correctly on trained ORLA stimuli. No differences were noted in CADL-3 scores. All participants were highly satisfied with telepractice as a service delivery model.
Remote Cognitive and behavioral assessment: Report of the Alzheimer Society of Canada Task Force on Dementia care best practices for COVID-19. (EN)
by Geddes, M.R, O'Connell, M., et al.
September 22, 2020
TYPE OF TOOL: Research Article.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed to inform clinicians, researchers, and educators.
BASIC DESCRIPTION: Provide a multi?dimensional framework for remotely assessing cognitive, functional, behavioral, and physical aspects of people with cognitive impairment, along with ethical and technical considerations.
Sensory processing measure, remote version (SPM-2) (EN)
by Mind Resources (Canadian)
TYPE OF TOOL: Assessment Tool.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed for clinicians and researchers.
BASIC DESCRIPTION: Provides an updated and expanded version of the Sensory Processing Measure. The SPM-2 may be administered using printed forms or electronically through the WPS online Evaluation System.
Telehealth Fine Motor Assessment - Functional Skills (EN)
by Your Therapy Source
TYPE OF TOOL: Assessment Tool.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed for clinicians and researchers.
BASIC DESCRIPTION: Provides a template to guide through the completion of a preschool/school-age functional fine motor observational assessment remotely.
Telerehab at Home: Mobile Tablet Technology for Patients With Poststroke Communication Deficits—A Pilot Feasibility Randomized Control Trial (EN)
by Mallet, K. H., Shamloul, R.M. et al.
January 12, 2023
TYPE OF TOOL: Research Article.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed to inform clinicians, researchers, and educators.
BASIC DESCRIPTION: SLT using telerehabilitation via mobile technology is feasible in the very early stages of acute stroke recovery. It is potentially an effective means of bridging the gap between discharge from the acute care setting to the start of outpatient SLT services.
Telerehabilitation as a Therapeutic Exercise Tool versus Face-to-Face Physiotherapy: A Systematic Review (EN)
by Muñoz-Tomás, M.T., Burillo-Lafuente, M. et al.
February 28, 2023
TYPE OF TOOL: Research Article.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed to inform clinicians, researchers, and educators.
BASIC DESCRIPTION: Most of the studies concluded that physiotherapy interventions using telerehabilitation were at least as effective as traditional rehabilitation interventions and are considered feasible and effective options. In general, telerehabilitation interventions were shown to improve functional level and quality of life, as no significant differences with control groups were observed. This review provides information on patients’ high levels of satisfaction and adherence, with values equivalent to traditional rehabilitation in all cases.
Telerehabilitation service impact on physical function and adherence compared to face-to-face rehabilitation in patients with stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (EN)
by Munoz-Tomas, T., Burillo-Lafuente, M. et al.
May 04, 2023
TYPE OF TOOL: Research Article.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed to inform clinicians, researchers, and educators.

by Benziger, C.P., Huffman, M.D., et al.
July 18, 2020
TYPE OF TOOL: Research Article.
TARGET POPULATION: Developed to inform clinicians, researchers, and educators.
BASIC DESCRIPTION: The authors propose the “Telehealth Ten,” which is a patient-assisted clinical examination to help guide clinicians.
