Abstract

A system and method for secure telerehabilitation is disclosed. The system and method can create results to evaluate patient performance. The results can then be uploaded to a server and stored in a database. The database can have secure fields for each doctor and secure fields for each patient within each doctor'"'"'s field. The

Claims

1. A system for aural rehabilitation for a subject comprising:

a patient'"'"'s device, and

a server, wherein the patient'"'"'s device is securely networked with the server.

2. The system of claim 1, further comprising a physician'"'"'s device, wherein the physician'"'"'s device is securely networked with the server.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the patient'"'"'s device is configured to create a result and the result is uploaded to the server.

4. A method of aural rehabilitation for a subject comprising:

uploading a result to a server,

encrypting the result.

5. The method of claim 4, wherein before uploading, the method comprises calculating the result using a patient'"'"'s device.

6. The method of claim 5, further comprising storing the result in a database.

7. The method of claim 6, wherein the server comprises the database.

8. The method of claim 6, wherein the result is stored in a physician'"'"'s account within the database.

9. The method of claim 8, wherein the physician'"'"'s account is secure.

10. The method of claim 8, wherein the result is stored in a patient'"'"'s account within the physician'"'"'s account.

11. The method of claim 10, wherein the patient'"'"'s account is secure.

12. The method of claim 4, further comprising logging into a password-protected account.

13. The method of claim 4, wherein before uploading, the method comprises securely networking a first device to a second device.

14. The method of claim 4, wherein encrypting further comprising encrypting with public private key encryption.

15. The method of claim 4, further comprising validating an uploading device.

16. The method of claim 15, wherein validating comprises wherein the uploading device sends an identifying data, and wherein the identifying data comprises a device-specific identification.

17. The method of claim 4, further comprising storing a log-in hash value.

18. A method of securely distributing telerehabilitation software to a user comprising:

delivering the telerehabilitation software to a distributor,

reserving a license for the telerehabilitation software,

delivering the telerehabilitation software to the user,

activating the telerehabilitation software, wherein the user prompts the activation.

19. The method of claim 18, wherein reserving comprises connecting a first device to a second device over a secure network connection.

20. The method of claim 18, wherein activating comprises connecting a first device to a second device over a secure network connection.
