Abstract

Individuals with neurodegenerative diseases (NDD) may pose serious challenges to daily life medical contexts. In fact, they commonly fail while dealing with environmental requests. To overcome this issue, one may rely on assistive technology-based programs. The COVID-19 pandemic suddenly exacerbated their clinical conditions. Telerehabilitation may be useful to profitably tackle the latter issue. A concise survey on the newest empirical contributions available was proposed. Five main categories of studies were identified. Results were satisfactory, although failures occurred. Findings were critically discussed and some useful insights for both research and practice were highlighted.
