Filter by:Total arthroplasty (THA) is the treatment of choice for severe osteoarthritis of the hip joint. Following this type of intervention, a multidisciplinary rehabilitation approach allows you to reduce pain and improve the ability to carry out activities of daily living (ADL), but it is not clear what the optimal rehabilitation program is. Recently, the use of telerehabilitation has increased over the years. Specifically, in treatment of patients following THA surgery, telerehabilitation is able to give similar results to the treatment performed in person terms of pain and function. The aim of this study is to verify whether telerehabilitation associated with In-person treatment is comparable in terms of pain, recovery functionality and patient participation and satisfaction, compared to those provided by rehabilitation alone in the presence of patients undergoing THA surgery.
This randomised controlled trial (RCT) aims to investigate the effect of long-term, interactive home-based cycle-exercise on patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) after a COPD exacerbation requiring hospitalisation. The investigators aim to investigate if patients can maintain or improve the effects of pulmonary rehabilitation in terms of walking distance, intensity of COPD symptoms, health related quality of life and Quality Adjusted Life-Years. Participants will cycle on a pedal-exerciser in the comfort of staying in the participants' own home, whilst getting visual feedback from the 4Mvideo app. The 4Mvideo technology is a Danish designed software system, where users can cycle forward a recording of a cyclist by treading on a pedal-exerciser, thereby getting some of the experience of a real-life cycling trip at home. The investigators will compare the clinical outcomes and daily activity levels with that of a control group consisting of COPD patients.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare patient-reported and performance-based outcomes of patients followed with a standard exercise program based on telerehabilitation and patients followed with action observation therapy program added to a standard exercise program based on telerehabilitation after total knee arthroplasty surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: - [What is the effect of action observation therapy added to a telerehabilitation-based standard exercise program on patient-reported outcomes after total knee arthroplasty surgery?] - [What is the effect of action observation therapy added to a telerehabilitation-based standardized exercise program on performance-based outcomes after total knee arthroplasty surgery?] Participants will be divided into three groups by computer-assisted randomization method: Group 1: home exercise with information leaflet group, Group 2: information leaflet + telerehabilitation-based standard exercise program group, Group 3: information leaflet + telerehabilitation-based standard exercise program + action observation therapy group. Patients in the second and third groups will be followed up with the telerehabilitation method accompanied by a physiotherapist for 30 minutes 3 days a week for 6 weeks after discharge. The third group will receive a standard exercise program 3 days a week and 15 minutes of action observation therapy via video conferencing.
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common chronic rheumatic disease of unknown etiology in childhood. JIA covers several different subgroups and is predominantly manifested by peripheral arthritis. Joint swelling, effusion, tenderness, pain in JIA; causes functional limitations, fatigue and quality of life disorders. Chronic inflammation limits the patient's daily activities and productivity. Self-management is defined as an individual's ability to manage their symptoms, treatment, lifestyle changes, and the psychosocial and cultural consequences of health conditions. Good self-efficacy and coping skills reduce the health and financial burden on the individual as well as on health care, benefiting society in general. Telerehabilitation is the dissemination of rehabilitation services through communication technologies. In the literature, it is seen that the studies on internet-based exercise applications are limited. In the studies, people were encouraged to physical activity with an internet-based application and the benefits of being active were given within the scope of patient education, and it was reported that the level of physical activity effectively improved as a result. It can also increase endurance, has been reported to be safe and feasible. In our study, unlike the literature, the self-management program and exercise applications will be integrated into the internet-based telerehabilitation method, based on the fact that the exercise practices in JIA are effective in disease management and improvement of symptoms. Therefore, in our study; the effectiveness of telerehabilitation-based exercise methods to be applied additionally synchronously and asynchronously to self-management education in children and adolescents with JIA on pain, disease activity, functional status, fatigue, quality of life, psychosocial status, self-efficacy and satisfaction will be examined and compared.
Exercise is a core treatment method in the management of Axial Spondyloarthritis. Clinical guidelines recommend a combination of pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic approaches to reduce disease activity and symptoms and improve physical function. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the provision of healthcare services remotely and the digitalization of rehabilitation services. Telerehabilitation methods provide advantages in terms of transportation, prevention of infections that may occur due to suppression of immunity with drugs, and continuity of treatment in patients with axial spondyloarthritis. In this context, it is important to evaluate the effects of remote physiotherapy and rehabilitation delivery in chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases. This study, which will examine the effects of telerehabilitation in the disease management processes of individuals with axial spondyloarthritis, is thought to shed light on future studies. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of telerehabilitation or pre-recorded video-based core exercise program on core endurance, disease activity and physical function in subjects with axial spondyloarthritis.
Brief Summary: This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate whether active remote symptom monitoring and management via a smartphone app utilizing electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) can improve adherence to prescribed outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation exercises among postsurgical lung cancer patients. Eligible patients will use the app for perioperative care and be randomized to an intervention group receiving ePRO-based symptom monitoring with clinician feedback or a control group receiving ePRO without feedback. The primary outcome is rehabilitation exercise adherence rate over 1 month after discharge. If proven effective, the app-enabled remote rehabilitation model can be scaled up to enhance recovery for more postoperative patients.
The coronavirus (COVID -19) has rapidly turned into a global pandemic. For patients diagnosed with COVID-19, it caused severe damage in the upper respiratory system and systemic complications, including the cardiovascular, mental, nervous, and musculoskeletal system. Previous research has indicated that these subsequent sequelae can reduce quality of life. (A. W. Wong et al., 2020) Studies have indicated that exercise training is beneficial to improve blood pressure, reduce cardiovascular factors, reduce complications, and relieve depression (J. Galloza et al., 2017) However, the current international research on the benefits of exercise rehabilitation and the improvement of quality of life in patients who have been infected with COVID-19 is still lacking. Under the international epidemic, it is pointed out that the importance of telerehabilitation has also been advocated worldwide. Previous systematic review indicated that no matter it is nervous, muscular or cardiac system disease, the efficacy of telerehabilitation is superior to face-to-face rehabilitation. The purpose of this study is to compare the effect between the intervention of KNEESUP smart knee assistive device, the use of the APP, and the health education in routine outpatient after diagnosis of Long Covid-19.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of a-12-week virtual reality exercise program, applied as tele-exercise, on the exercise capacity of children with cystic fibrosis, whose physical activity level is further restricted during the pandemic. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does aerobic tele-exercise increase functional capacity in cystic fibrosis patients? Will there be a difference in treatment outcomes between the virtual reality group and the online exercise group? Participants will be randomized into two groups; virtual reality group and online group. Physical activity will be provided to the virtual reality group in the form of team activities in a virtual environment, and the other group will be provided online exercises at their home. For this purpose, virtual reality headsets will be provided to patients to give the impression of a natural, immersive environment and realistic experience. Researchers will compare exercise compliance and functional capacity between the virtual reality group and the online group.
The study will compare the effect of individual telerehabilitation with offline remote exercise through videos and with a control group without intervention. The monitored group will be people with multiple sclerosis with balance impairment. The duration of the intervention will be 12 weeks.
The study, titled The Effect of Physiotherapy and Nutrition Services Provided by Telerehabilitation Methods on the Physical, Nutritional and Psychological Conditions of Children with Autism and Their Families, aimed to evaluate the effects of physiotherapy and nutrition education to be given to the participants. Participants were children with autism spectrum disorder and parents of children with autism spectrum disorder. There will be surveys that researchers will ask participants to answer. Parent telerehabilitation group participants via smartphone video conferencing; Researchers involved in this project; A physiotherapist and a physiotherapist senior physiotherapy intern will send 1 session of online simultaneous exercise training to the parent telerehabilitation group participants, then an exercise video containing the exercises and brochures will be sent and the parent telerehabilitation group participants will be asked to do the exercises 3 days a week. Participants will be asked to keep an exercise diary and the status of the diaries will be monitored once a week. Additionally, the concepts of physical activity and recreational activity in autism will be explained to the participants. Again, via smartphone video conferencing, the researchers participating in this project; 3 different nutrition trainings will be given by 1 dietitian and 1 senior dietitian trainee within the scope of basic nutrition and nutrition-health information at 15-day intervals. Waist, hip and height measurements of autistic child participants will be measured with a tape measure, and their body weight will be measured with a scale. The study will last 2 months.
