Detailed description

The use of telehealth in pulmonary rehabilitation, also known as telerehabilitation, is a novel approach in healthcare practice. In order to effectively implement telerehabilitation programs, it is important to evaluate how potential users perceive and accept this new type of program. Thus, the aim of this research was to create a measuring tool that could assess the level of acceptance of telerehabilitation among healthcare providers and patients. A group of experts in pulmonary rehabilitation, telehealth, information technology, and scale development have reviewed and confirmed the content validity of the Tele-Pulmonary Rehabilitation Acceptance Scale. This scale is significant because it offers a consistent means of collecting data to measure the level of acceptance towards telerehabilitation among potential users. This study aims to translate and show the consistency and validity of the Tele-Pulmonary Rehabilitation Acceptance Scale in Turkish.
