    Abstract:
    The hand rehabilitation process needs a continuous and frequent monitoring of the patient's functionality in order to test the delivered therapy and/or adapt it to the patient's progress. In order to contain costs for the rehabilitation program, a tele-homecare rehabilitation system is suitable. We have proposed a tele-home-care allowing the assessment of the hand fingers' dynamics and kinematics by integrating with a dedicated software two particular devices: the first was a commercial glove, the HumanGlove by Humanware (Pisa, Italy) and the second was a set of instruments for the measurement of the hand fingers' force comprehending an Instrumented Keyboard (IK) and an Instrumented Mouse-Like (IML) device. The platform has been successfully tested at Istituto Superiore di Sanità (ISS).
