Multiple Sclerosis (MS) often entails a series of difficulties that cause some people to have high rates of absenteeism or even prevent them from benefiting from in-person rehabilitation treatments. The onset of the disease at a very young age, when the person is actively working or studying, the difficulty of balancing work and family life, mobility issues and lack of transportation, and geographical dispersion are some of the reasons why people with MS are not always able to access a neurorehabilitation center. Scientific evidence shows that functional and social barriers are the most common reasons why people do not adhere to rehabilitation. Home-based tele-rehabilitation (TRHB) is an alternative to rehabilitation in centers, allowing for remote supervision and the elimination of barriers. In addition, TRHB provides affected individuals and their families/caregivers with greater support in terms of care, mobility, and access to these services, and according to the World Health Organization (WHO), this type of assistance improves access to the healthcare system. There is a gap in research to identify the main adverse events related to tele-rehabilitation, and it is important to understand how adverse events, such as falls during physical therapy, are associated with the delivery of tele-rehabilitation.
