Background: Spinal cord injury is a multisystem disease which compromises independence and quality of life; remote care models represent an opportunity for long-term management of complications. The aim of this study was to explore remote care models for chronic spinal cord injury patients. Methods: A systematic review of the literature was carried out. Five databases (PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar) were systematically explored with a time limit of five years. Included studies were assessed using Jadad Score and PEDro Scale. Results: Four RCTs were included in this systematic review. In all studies, multidisciplinary home care supported by technology were compared with in-person models. Remote care models were effective in managing pressure injury, infection, and muscle atrophy and improve quality of life. Conclusions: Remote care models can be a key tool for improving self-efficacy, decreasing hospitalizations and preventing long-term mortality.
