[Artificial intelligence in comprehensive rehabilitation of people with disabilities. (Literature review)].

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have been increasingly used in the field of healthcare over the past decade, which significantly increases the effectiveness of diagnostic, preventive and therapeutic measures. The development of comprehensive rehabilitation for the people with disabilities, is at the intersection of social and medical fields, and it is classically adopting innovative methods of healthcare, AI technologies in particular. However, the use of such technologies for various targeted rehabilitation groups (TRGs) people with disabilities, taking into account the specifics of possible rehabilitation measures and services, has not been sufficiently studied for today. The aim of the work is to identify the existing, most widespread and successfully applied AI technologies by analyzing foreign publications on the use of AI technologies in the comprehensive rehabilitation of the people with disabilities. The paper analyzed foreign studies described in systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in the PubMed international medical database over the past 5 years (from January 2019 to May 2024). AI technologies were considered from the point of view of application in the areas of complex rehabilitation for different TRGs. The concept of TRGs is new and has no analogues abroad, however, its use in the analysis allows to systematize information about AI technologies in terms of applied tasks of rehabilitation of the disabled. The largest number of studies on the use of AI technologies in rehabilitation relate to the restoration of motor functions of people with disabilities. The analysis of the publication flow makes it possible to assess the prospects and identify areas of rehabilitation and TRGs where the use of AI technologies has been studied to a greater or lesser extent.
