Abstract

The International Journal of Telerehabilitation (IJT) is a biannual journal dedicated to advancing telerehabilitation by disseminating peer-reviewed information about current research and practices. IJT is indexed by PubMed and Scopus.

IJT is published via the open journal system (OJS) and sponsored by the University of Pittsburgh’s Office of Scholarly Communication and Publishing at the University Library System. This institutional support enables IJT to be subscription free and require no author fees.

The current issue of the multi-disciplinary IJT features impactful research across rehabilitation disciplines. As context, COVID-19, a global pandemic, even with the availability of vaccines, is still dramatically affecting healthcare worldwide to greater or lesser degrees, as well as the global economy. Submissions to IJT continue to increase, ostensibly to document how telerehabilitation is meeting these challenges. We regret that we are unable to publish the high volume of articles that are being submitted. Instead, we strive to promptly suggest other placements for work that is not central to the mission of the journal (i.e., telerehabilitation) or relevant to the larger IJT audience.
