About

Areti Lagiou is a researcher whose work sits at the intersection of digital health technology and rehabilitation science, with a particular focus on transforming how patients recover and regain function outside of traditional clinical settings. Her most influential contribution, a comprehensive scoping review on technologies in home-based digital rehabilitation published in 2023, has rapidly garnered 105 citations — a testament to its timeliness and significance within the field. In this work, Lagiou and her collaborators systematically mapped the evolving landscape of digital tools designed to support patients recovering at home, addressing a critical gap in healthcare delivery that was sharply exposed by the pressures of the COVID-19 pandemic. By cataloguing and synthesizing available technologies, her research provides clinicians, health system designers, and policymakers with a vital evidence base for scaling remote rehabilitation solutions. The preprint version of this study, released in 2022, further demonstrates her commitment to open and timely science. For students and researchers exploring digital therapeutics, telehealth, or patient-centered care models, Lagiou's work offers an essential and authoritative entry point into understanding how technology can meaningfully extend rehabilitation beyond hospital walls.
