AI-based Model for Rehabilitation Engagement and Motor Performance Evaluation in Pediatric Patients: A Pilot Study (AI-REMAP)
AI-based Model for Rehabilitation Engagement and Motor Performance Evaluation in Pediatric Patients
What is the purpose of this study? This study aims to evaluate the usability and feasibility of an artificial intelligence-based model designed to monitor in real-time the engagement and motor performance of pediatric patients during technology-assisted rehabilitation.
Who can take part? 15 participants between 5 and 17 years old with neuromotor impairments will take part, along with at least 5 of their referring physiotherapists.
What will happen in the study? Each pediatric patient will take part in a single, 1-hour rehabilitation session using either the Lokomat or GRAIL system, according to their standard clinical prescription. During the session, the physiotherapist will have access to a display showing real-time data from the AI model, including the patient's heart rate, engagement level, pleasantness, activation, and motor performance. At the end of the session, the physiotherapist will complete a System Usability Scale (SUS) questionnaire and provide direct feedback on how to improve the model.
Why is this study important? Assessing the usability of this real-time monitoring tool is a necessary step to understand if it is practical for clinical use. Providing therapists with objective, real-time insights into a child's psychological and physical state can ultimately help tailor therapy to the specific needs of each patient, improving the overall rehabilitation experience.

Eksperimentell: Real-Time Engagement Monitoring
Participants in this experimental arm, consisting of pediatric patients with neuromotor impairments, will undergo a single 1-hour technology-assisted rehabilitation session using either the Lokomat or GRAIL system.
During the session, the physiotherapist will use a display showing real-time outputs from the AI-based model, including the patient's heart rate, engagement levels, pleasantness, activation, and motor performance.
The model acts as an observational support tool and will not directly alter the standard rehabilitation protocol.
At the end of the session, the physiotherapist will evaluate the usability of the system.
|
The intervention consists of the deployment of a real-time AI-based monitoring system during a standard technology-assisted rehabilitation session.
The physiotherapist is provided with a display showing continuous feedback on the patient's engagement levels, emotional state (pleasantness and activation), motor performance, and heart rate.
The model processes physiological and inertial data collected via wearable sensors, acting purely as an observational support tool without altering the standard rehabilitation protocol.

System Usability Scale (SUS) Score
Tidsramme: Baseline
|
This validated questionnaire is intended to evaluate the usability and feasibility of a system or product.
It is composed of 10 items assessing factors such as system complexity, ease of use, and functionality integration.
Each item is proposed on a 5-points Likert scale, with minimum value 1 and maximum value 5. Higher overall values stand for a higher degree of agreement with respect to the statement provided by the single item.
For odd items, higher values stand for higher usability.
For even items, higher values stand for lower usability.

Tjenesteleverandør-vurdert mål for klientengasjement (Prime-SP)
Tidsramme: Baseline
|
Dette tiltaket er ment å fange terapeutens observasjon av pasientengasjement.
Prime-SP er et validert selvrapportert spørreskjema som er sammensatt av tre hoveddeler: del A, der terapeuten kan utføre en samlet evaluering av pasientengasjement i henhold til en 5-punkts Likert-skala (fra 0 til 4, med høyere verdier som tilsvarer positivt engasjement); Del B, der terapeuten kan utføre en domeneavhengig (affektive, kognitive, atferdsdomener) evaluering av pasientengasjement i henhold til en 5-punkts Likert-skala (fra 0 til 4, med høyere verdier som tilsvarer positivt engasjement); Del C, der terapeuten kan ta gratis merknader om faktorer og omstendigheter som han/hun mener kan ha påvirket pasientengasjement i økten.

AI Model-Inferred Engagement Level
Tidsramme: Baseline
|
This objective measure is intended to capture the patient's continuous engagement level during the rehabilitation session.
The AI-based model infers the engagement state using feed-forward neural networks that process real-time physiological data (such as HRV and EDA) and inertial signals (IMU).
The model provides a categorical evaluation of engagement (low vs high).
