First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a rehabilitation program using a smartphone app (MORA) could help bedridden hospital patients improve their physical function. Twenty-five adults who could not walk used the app to do personalized exercises twice daily for two weeks. The goal was to see if the program was safe and easy to follow, with healthcare staff monitoring for any problems.
