The aim of this study is to compare the performances of patients with Rett syndrome that were undergoing advanced telerehabilitation (ATR) and patients that were undergoing basic telerehabilitation (BTR). It was hypothesized that patients that were undergoing ATR training would have better improvement in nearly all the motor and cognitive scale scoring activities that were administered, thus showing reduced disability. A total of 20 young girls and women with a diagnosis of RTT, ranging from age 4 to 31 years old (Median: 12.50; IQR: 9.50-17.25) underwent a pre-test, treatment post-test 1, treatment, and post-test 2 procedure. The treatment consisted of either ATR or BTR, lasting 10 weeks with three sessions a week of about an hour. The results showed that the group with advanced telerehabilitation improved their performance better than the control group only in some neuropsychological measurements. The results are discussed in the light of critical factors of telerehabilitation.
本研究旨在比较接受高级远程康复（ATR）和基本远程康复（BTR）的雷特综合征患者的表现。研究假设接受 ATR 训练的患者在接受的几乎所有运动和认知量表评分活动中都会有更好的改善，从而显示出残疾程度的降低。共有 20 名被诊断为 RTT 的年轻女孩和女性，年龄在 4 至 31 岁之间（中位数：12.50；IQR：9.50-17.25）接受了预测试、治疗后测 1、治疗和后测 2 程序。治疗包括 ATR 或 BTR，持续 10 周，每周进行三次，每次约一小时。结果表明，高级远程康复组在一些神经心理学测量中比对照组的表现更好。研究结果在远程康复的关键因素方面进行了讨论。
