- Strokes leave 5 million people with long-term impairments each year.
- A growing shortage of physical therapists makes needed care harder for people with stroke-related impairments to obtain.
- A new rehabilitation approach combines artificial intelligence with human therapy to address the resulting access problem.
Why it matters: For the 5 million people who develop long-term impairments from strokes each year, therapist shortages restrict access to ongoing care. The new approach combines AI with human therapy, directly targeting that barrier without replacing physical therapists in the described model.
