Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) based systems were reported in 34 studies, making them the predominant wearable technology. Kinematic biomarkers were the most commonly investigated biomarker domain, particularly in stroke (16\/29) and Parkinson disease studies (9\/10). In contrast, activity-based (2\/5) and physiological biomarkers (2\/5) were more prevalent in spinal cord injury research. Although several studies reported favorable validity and reliability of wearable-derived measures, substantial heterogeneity was observed across studies in sensor configurations, biomarker definitions, and validation methodologies.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Wearable-derived digital biomarkers demonstrate considerable potential for objective and ecologically valid monitoring in neurological rehabilitation.
