Official title

Telerehabilitation Following Meniscectomy: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Telerehabilitation is a form of tele-treatment in which rehabilitation services are dispensed at patients' home utilizing video telecommunication services with real-time synchronous exchange of information. Since telerehabilitation was found to be equally effective as conventional therapy, it was being practiced even before the COVID times, however it was truly valuable during the lockdown. The advantages of telerehabilitation include reducing unnecessary travel to the hospital and person to person contact while maintaining social distancing. While some of the patients are truly staying at remote areas, others are unable to manage travel in the lockdown period. Telemedicine offers the opportunity to deliver rehabilitative services in the patients' home, closing geographic, physical, and motivational gaps. Punctuality on either side is also assured since the travel times are saved on both the ends. The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate telerehabilitation vs in-person rehabilitation following Meniscectomy.
