Section Policy

International Journal of Digital Rehabilitation and Therapy (IJDRT) accepts research and critical review articles.

Research Articles

Research articles are evaluated using qualitative, quantitative, mixed-methodology and single-subject methodology, and fall within the following areas

1. Neurological Conditions

Digital tools such as VR and robotics offer scalable, customizable solutions for motor and cognitive rehabilitation in long-term neurological impairments.

2.Musculoskeletal Disorders

Wearable devices and biofeedback tools enhance physical therapy, support progress tracking, and help manage chronic pain or post-injury recovery.

3. Cardiopulmonary Conditions

Remote monitoring and digital platforms improve rehabilitation adherence and accessibility, especially for rural or underserved patients.

4. Mental Health and Behavioral Disorders

Digital interventions, including CBT apps and VR-based exposure therapy, provide accessible, cost-effective mental health support.

5. Pediatric Conditions

Gamified digital therapies offer engaging, adaptive solutions for children with developmental or motor challenges, supporting early intervention.

6. Aging-Related Conditions

Digital tools such as memory training apps and fall detection systems promote independence and quality of life in older adults.

7. Women's Health

Digital platforms provide remote monitoring, tailored exercise programs, and mental health support for women-specific health issues.

8. Cancer Rehabilitation

Virtual physical therapy and AI-guided exercises help address functional impairments following cancer treatment.

9. Sports Rehabilitation

Digital tools enhance rehabilitation efficiency and engagement through data-driven, personalized recovery programs for athletes.

10 Orthosis and Prosthesis

Digital solutions enable precise customization and real-time adaptation of orthotic and prosthetic devices for improved functional outcomes.

Submissions in these areas should be highly scientific papers. IJDRT is looking for submissions that combine feasible proposals with quality applications. A strong link between theory, policy and practice is expected in the submitted papers.

Critical Review Articles

Critical review articles should link theory and practice and produce informative resources for educators, practitioners and policy makers. IJDRT seeks submissions that critically combine viable proposals with quality practices. It is expected that theory, policy and practice will be tightly linked in the submitted papers.
