This issue of the International Journal of Telerehabilitation (IJT) contains original research evaluating the efficacy of telerehabilitation; a randomized study measuring costs and outcomes of tele-intervention when serving families of children who are deaf/hard-of-hearing; and a telephone-based physiotherapy intervention for patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. A feasibility study on the use of e-supervision to support speech-language pathologist graduate students during student teaching practica outlines benefits, limitations, and implications for future practice. In addition to innovative research, this issue includes announcements from the American Telemedicine Association and the Mid-Atlantic Telehealth Resource Center.
