Abstract |
Background : Artificial intelligence has an important role in practical life and rehabilitation, proving successful compared to conventional methods by enhancing clinical decision-making, patient monitoring, and optimizing patient outcomes. AI-powered tools have demonstrated the ability to improve treatment precision, automate documentation, and provide personalized therapy based on real-time patient data. Moreover, AI-driven rehabilitation technologies offer a more interactive and adaptive approach, ensuring better engagement and adherence to treatment programs. Objectives : The purpose of this review is to highlight effectiveness of AI-driven tools in enhancing clinical documentation and in managing musculoskeletal conditions, with a focus on exercise correction and pain management . Methods : Data were collected and analyzed in February 2025 from PubMed and Google Scholar. A total of 16 studies were identified, of which 6 studies were selected for inclusion which published between 2019 and 2024 .Studies investigate Ai-driven tools: DAX Copilot, Sword and Kaia health app in the following areas: Documentation, Home program tracking and exercise correction. Results: A total of 6 studies with diverse designs : Cohort, longitudinal cohort, Randomized controlled trial, pilot and secondary analysis of prospective clinical study were included. Key findings from the studies are as follows: pain reduction different age group, AI motion coaching showed high agreement with physiotherapy assessments , proving Its ability to detect movement patterns and provide feedback and reduced time spent on electronic medical records while note length increased . Conclusion : Reviewed studies reported high adherence, engagement, Effective telerehabilitation outcomes, improved clinical documentation by reducing time spent on electronic medical Records and enhancing note accuracy |
