The Barthel Index (Functional Independence) |
Independence in self-care and mobility; it assesses the patient's level of independence with respect to the performance of some basic activities of daily living (ADLs), whereby different scores are assigned. Provides information both from the global score and from each of the partial scores for each activity. This helps to gain a better understanding of the person's specific impairments and facilitates the assessment of their evolution over time. The total score is reached by adding up the scores for each measurement and predicts the time and help that the patient will require. Scores can range from zero to 100, adding up to five points per category, so that higher scores indicate a greater degree of functional independence. It is an easy to apply measure, with a high degree of reliability and validity, capable of detecting changes, easy to interpret, and is not bothersome to apply. |

The functional independence measure (FIM) |
A global ordinal scale for functional assessment (mobility and self-care) is useful in making decisions about the effectiveness of therapy. Several studies have used the FIM to investigate treatment outcome in self-care, transfers (mobility) and locomotion. The FIM uses a 7-level scale to rate functional performance. The total FIM score is obtained by summing the ratings of the 18 items included in the different levels. The scale has good reliability and its comparison with other instruments yields correlations of 0.84 with the Barthel Index. |

The Timed "Up & Go" test (TUG) Functional mobility |
The original Get-up and Go test was intended to clinically assess dynamic balance in older people during the performance of a task involving fall-critical situations. The TUG test measures, in seconds, the time required for an individual to get up from a standard chair with armrests (approximately 46 cm high), walk 3 m, turn around, return to the chair and sit down again. The test has been widely used in clinical practice as an outcome measure to assess functional mobility, fall risk or dynamic balance in adults. The TUG test, proved to be a good tool for assessing functional mobility in the paediatric. Assessment in seconds, ranging from less than 10 seconds considered as independent mobility to more than 20 seconds considered as reduced mobility. |

Quality of life (SF12), 12- Item Short Form Survey |
The SF-12 questionnaire will be used for the assessment of health-related quality of life. The SF-12 questionnaire assesses eight dimensions of health-related quality of life: physical function, physical role, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social function, emotional role and mental health. The range of scores obtained is from 0 to 63 points. High internal consistency indices are observed both in the Spanish validation of the questionnaire 0.83 and 0.9039, as well as in several international studies. |

Adherence to treatment |
The telephone therapy application automatically records compliance with the scheduled sessions, as well as the non-compliance with the protocol indicated by the physiotherapist. This adherence is completed by the weekly control with the physiotherapist at the reference hospital, who will record attendance at the sessions. |

Satisfaction, Obstacles and Barriers to the use of tele-physiotherapy, Satisfaction ad hoc questionaire |
The investigators will use a questionnaire designed Ad hoc which includes a Likert scale (1 Dissatisfied - 5 Very satisfied), and open questions for the patient and relatives to point out the possible obstacles and barriers in the use of TelePhysiotherapy. |

Satisfaction, Obstacles and Barriers to the use of tele-physiotherapy, TSQ (Telemedicine Satisfaction Questionnaire) |
The TSQ is a 14-item questionnaire in its final version, the questionnaire items are scored on a five-point scale, from 1 being strongly disagree to 5 being strongly agree.. The internal consistency of the TSQ was 0.93, which is considered acceptable and indicates strong correlations between the items that make up the scale. Predictive validity supported the conclusion that the TSQ measured patient satisfaction with telemedicine (Pearson's correlation coefficient (r=0.45, P<0.05) (36). |
