Remotely monitoring objective physical activity is necessary for understanding the progress made by patients during the rehabilitation process. Physical activity monitors provide clinicians and researchers a means to measure continuous everyday activity in the community. Remotely monitoring PA in individuals with neurological impairments involves challenges specific to this patient population. This presentation will summarize the lessons learnt during objective remote monitoring of physical activity to help promote the use of wearables in future research studies and translate the use of wearables into everyday clinical practice.
