About this study

Thanks to telerehabilitation, it will be possible for individuals to learn the exercise programs in the most appropriate way and to communicate easily with their physiotherapists with video images. In this way, it will be ensured that individuals can perform their exercises at the optimum level in non-clinical environments. The aim of the study is to compare the conventional home exercise program performed with video-based telerehabilitation and the balance coordination program in subacute stroke patients.

Primary outcomes

  1. FES-I

    Time frame: Change from Baseline FES-I at 6 weeks

    There are 16 items in FES-I that assess the fear of falling during daily activities. FES-I is scored from 0 to 64. Higher scores indicate higher concerns about falling.

  2. ABC

    Time frame: Change from Baseline ABC at 6 weeks

    This scale includes 16 tasks related to indoor and outdoor activities of daily living to measure balance confidence in the elderly with various levels of function. Higher scores indicate more confidence. ABC is scored from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate higher function.

  3. SSEQ

    Time frame: Change from Baseline SSEQ at 6 weeks

    The 13-item SSEQ is used to measure participants' self-efficacy levels in performing daily functional activities and self-management. SSEQ is scored from 0 to 130. Higher scores indicate higher confidence.

Secondary outcomes

  1. TSQ

    Time frame: Change from Baseline TSQ at 6 weeks

    This questionnaire consists of 14 items. The level of satisfaction of the patients with the software or system from which they receive treatment or other remote rehabilitation services is evaluated. TSQ is scored from 14 to 170. Higher scores indicate higher satisfaction.
