Abstract
Stroke, a debilitating neurological event, poses substantial challenges to the healthcare system worldwide. Physical rehabilitation is a cornerstone of stroke recovery, aimed at restoring lost motor functions and improving patients' overall quality of life. In recent years, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools has ushered in a significant transformation in stroke rehabilitation, offering innovative solutions to enhance the effectiveness of therapy and personalize treatment plans. This comprehensive review explores the current state of AI applications in aiding the physical rehabilitation of stroke patients. We delve into AI-powered assessment and diagnosis, personalized rehabilitation programs, tele-rehabilitation, data analysis, and predictive analytics. We also discuss the challenges and future directions of AI in stroke rehabilitation, emphasizing the importance of collaboration between AI experts, healthcare professionals, and policymakers.
