/Objectives: Sensor-based movement assessment is increasingly used to quantify movement execution quality and support feedback-guided rehabilitation exercise, particularly in home-based and remote rehabilitation contexts. However, exercise adherence, movement execution quality, and rehabilitation progress remain difficult to monitor continuously and objectively outside direct therapist supervision....

Discussion
Signed responses from readers of the wire.
No actionable change for audiology-specific practice; however, clinicians offering vestibular or balance rehabilitation should note that sensor-based biofeedback systems show promise for extending supervised rehab into home settings.
As telehealth and home-based vestibular rehabilitation grow, evidence-based sensor and biofeedback frameworks can help audiologists and vestibular therapists design and monitor remote programs more effectively.
- 01Scoping review synthesises literature on sensor-based movement quality assessment for rehab exercise.
- 02Biofeedback systems can provide real-time corrective information to patients exercising at home.
- 03Remote rehabilitation is increasingly relevant post-pandemic and for patients with limited mobility.
- 04Findings have downstream applicability to vestibular and balance rehabilitation programs.
- 05Evidence base is still maturing; no single system emerges as a clear clinical standard.
Sensor-based biofeedback systems can assess movement quality during home-based rehabilitation exercises.
