Koronavirüs Hastalığı (COVID-19) Pandemisi ve Telerehabilitasyon

Öz

Özet

Koronavirüs hastalığı (COVID-19) oldukça bulaşıcı bir hastalık olduğu için ülkelerin sağlık sistemlerine ciddi bir yük bindirmiş ve toplumun yaşam biçiminde ciddi değişikliklere neden olmuştur. COVID-19 pandemisi, telerehabilitasyon uygulamalarının önemini daha da ön plana çıkarmıştır. Telerehabilitasyon, rehabilitasyon hizmetlerinin bilgi ve iletişim teknolojileri kullanılarak uzaktan sunulması olarak tanımlanabilir. COVID-19 pandemisinde bulaş riskinin en aza indirilmesi için sosyal hayatın kısıtlanmasıyla bireylerin fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri azalmış, hasta bireylerin rehabilitasyon hizmetlerine ulaşması ciddi düzeyde kısıtlanmıştır. Ayrıca, COVID-19’un ciddi bulaş riski nedeniyle rehabilitasyon profesyonelleri bu hastaların tedavisinde risk altına girmiştir. Bu durumlar göz önünde bulundurulduğunda pek çok otorite tarafından telerehabilitasyon uygulamalarının yaygınlaştırılması gerektiği vurgulanmaktadır. Bu derlemede, telerehabilitasyonun tanımı yapılmış, güncel kanıtları, avantajları ve dezavantajları sunularak COVID-19 pandemisindeki önemi tartışılmıştır.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Telerehabilitasyon, Koronavirüs, COVID-19, pandemi, rehabilitasyon.

Abstract

As coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is highly contagious, it has put a severe burden on the healthcare systems of countries and has caused critical changes in social life. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of telerehabilitation practices. Telerehabilitation can be defined as the remote delivery of rehabilitation services using information and communication technologies. To minimize the risk of transmission in the COVID-19 pandemic, the restriction on social life has decreased the physical activity levels of individuals, and the access of individuals with disabilities to rehabilitation services has been severely restricted. Besides, the rehabilitation professionals are at risk while treating their patients due to the severe risk of transmission of COVID-19. Considering these circumstances, the need to promote telerehabilitation practices has been highlighted by many authorities. This review has made the definition of telerehabilitation, presented its current evidence, advantages, and disadvantages, and discussed its importance in the COVID-19 pandemic.

Keywords: Telerehabilitation, Coronavirus, COVID-19, pandemic, rehabilitation.
