Abstract: (pdf).The aim of this systematic literature review was to determine the effectiveness of technology-based distance physical rehabilita tion on the functional ability of rehabilitees.A literature search was conducted on the CENTRAL, Embase, Ovid MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, OT-Seeker, PEDro and WOS databases (2000)(2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008)(2009)(2010)(2011)(2012)(2013)(2014).The inclusion criteria were: patient (age from 18 to 65 years), intervention (physical rehabilitation through distance technology to promote physical activity or functional ability), comparison (similar, ordinary or minimal physical rehabilitation without distance technology, or no rehabilitation) and outcome (weight, BMI, waistline, maximal oxygen uptake, mobility, phys ical activity, work ability, quality of life and self-efficacy).Quality evaluation was performed using the criteria of Furlan et al. (2009) and the classification of Anttila (2008).The statistical methods were meta-analysis and meta-regression.The level of evidence was determined according to the Current Care Guidelines.The total number of examinations was 45, including 11,602 participants.The average age of the participants was 52 years, and 52% of them were women.Physical rehabilitation utilizing distance technology increased physical activity in individuals with a diagnosed illness, compared with usual or minimal physical rehabilitation without distance technology.The impact was observed in weight loss, ex perienced quality of life as well as in cardiac and MS rehabilita tion as increased physical activity.No impact was observed when compared with similar rehabilitation without distance technology or with participants without a diagnosed illness.There is hetero geneity in the results.There is a need for further high-quality ran domized controlled trials and systematic reviews for evaluating the effectiveness of physical rehabilitation implemented through distance technology.
