Summary

Telerehabilitation applications are a treatment method that uses new technologies. There are examples of doing for many diseases in our country. It is a method used for people living in remote areas and people who cannot complete their treatment in hospitals due to the epidemic. In our study, we will use the telerehabilitation system. In this system, which we will use in people with chronic disease, we aim to see improvement in tests performed in many areas such as physical activity level, respiratory capacity, depression, and anxiety level of patients. In the study to be performed on 60 patients, 30 people will be control and 30 people will be the experimental group. The experimental group will be treated with a video conferencing method, tailor-made exercise program based on the international physical activity questionnaire level for 30 minutes 3 days a week for 6 weeks. The control group will only be informed with the help of a brochure with a standard exercise program. The tests we can use in this experiment are as follows: Barthel daily life activities index, beck depression and anxiety scale, ferrans power quality of life index, Charlson comorbidity index, environmental measurements, waist/hip ratio, fatigue severity scale, international physical activity questionnaire. Tests specific to chronic diseases will be applied to patient one to one.
