Efficiency of Telerehabilitation in Patients Operated With the Diagnosis of Distal Radius Fracture
Efficiency of Telerehabilitation in Patients Operated With the Diagnosis of Distal Radius Fracture
It was designed as a randomized controlled prospective. After 2 weeks of splint follow-up, the splints of the patients who were operated due to distal radius fracture and volar plate were applied will be removed and included in the physical therapy program. The measurements and scores of the patients at the time of removal of the splint will be recorded. Patients' non-injured contralateral extremity data will also be recorded. The dominant party will be registered. Preoperative fracture classification of the patients, reduction parameters after surgery, waiting time for post-fracture surgery, pre-fracture chronic diseases, cognitive disorders, psychiatric disease histories, whether the patients lived alone at home or not will be recorded. Patients will be randomized with the help of a free computer aided numerator. The patients will be divided into two groups and conventional face-to-face rehabilitation will be applied to one group, and the previously planned tele-rehabilitation program will be applied to the other group.

Videos of the exercises they will do via whatsapp will be sent to the telerehabilitation group. Again, in telerehabilitation, whatapp application will be made in the form of videoconference. Rehabilitation program will be applied to the patients 4 times a week for 6 weeks. Rehabilitation will be applied to the groups by the same person. At the end of the rehabilitation program, the first measurements of the patients will be taken. The third measurement of the patients will be taken at the 3rd month after the surgery. Among the parameters to be checked, grip strength, wrist range of motion, Shortened Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (QuickDASH) and Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE) questionnaire, VAS scale will be used. Solid side values will be recorded. Tele-rehabilitation satisfaction survey will be applied in the 3rd month controls of the patients.
