Abstract
Background/Objectives: Rett Syndrome (RTT) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder that affects girls and is characterized by severe motor and cognitive impairments, the loss of purposeful hand use, and communication difficulties. Children with RTT, especially those aged 5 to 9 years, often struggle to develop the foundational skills necessary for adaptive functioning, such as eye contact, object tracking, functional gestures, turn-taking, and basic communication. These abilities are essential for cognitive, social, and motor development and contribute to greater autonomy in daily life. This study aimed to explore the feasibility of a structured telerehabilitation program and to provide preliminary observations of its potential utility for young girls with RTT, addressing the presumed challenge of engaging this population in video-based interactive training. Methods: The intervention consisted of 30 remotely delivered sessions (each lasting 90 min), with assessments at baseline (A), after 5 weeks (B1), and after 10 weeks (B2). Quantitative outcome measures focused on changes in eye contact, object tracking, functional gestures, social engagement, and responsiveness to visual stimulus. Results: The findings indicate that the program was feasible and well-tolerated. Improvements were observed across all measured domains, and participants showed high levels of engagement and participation throughout the intervention. While these results are preliminary, they suggest that interactive digital formats may be promising for supporting foundational learning processes in children with RTT. Conclusions: This study provides initial evidence that telerehabilitation is a feasible approach for engaging young girls with RTT and supporting adaptive skill development. These findings may inform future research and the design of controlled studies to evaluate the efficacy of technology-assisted interventions in this population.
