The goal of the FIT4TeleNEURO pragmatic trial is to verify, in real-life care contexts, the superiority in terms of the effectiveness of early rehabilitation intervention with Telerehabilitation (TR) protocols (TR single Approach, task-oriented - TRsA; TR combined approach, task-oriented and impairment-oriented - TRcA) compared to conventional management (Educational treatment, ET).
The main questions it aims to answer are:
Participants will be subjective to:

| Change in static and dynamic balance as measured by the Mini-Best Test | The Mini-BESTest aims to identify the disordered systems underlying the postural control responsible for poor functional balance. This tool is composed by 27 tasks (36 items in total) assessing bio-mechanical constraints, stability limits/verticality, anticipatory responses, postural responses, sensory orientation, and stability in gait. Each item is scored based on ordinal scale scoring from 0- 3 where 3 = best performances and 0 = worst performances. The total score is provided as a percentage. Higher scores are indicative of better performance. | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in dynamic and static balance measured by the Fullerton Advanced Balance Scale - FAB | The FAB Scale evaluates dynamic and static balance under different situations. The test consists of 10 items that assess different aspects of balance, such as standing with eyes closed, reaching forward, turning, stepping, and standing on one leg. Each activity is scored on a 5-point scale from 0 to 4, where higher scores indicate better performance. The total score ranges from 0 to 40, with a score of 25 or lower indicating balance disturbances. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| System Usability Scale - SUS | The SUS is a 10 items questionnaire evaluating the perceived usability of a technological system or device. Each item is scored on a Likert scale from 0 to 5, and the total score range from 0 to 100. Higher scores are indicative of higher perceived usability. | 5 weeks after baseline |

| Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Change in dynamic balance as measured by the modified Dynamic Gait Index - mDGI | The mDGI measures the capacity to adapt gait to complex tasks utilizing 8 tasks and 3 facets of performance (gait pattern score [0 -3], level of assistance [0 -2], and time level score [0 -3]). The total task score (range 0 -8) is calculated by summing the 3 performance facet scores for each task. Higher scores are indicative of better performance. | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Change in perceived stability during activities of daily living as measured by the Activities Balance Confidence scale - ABC | ABC is a 16-item questionnaire that measures an individual's confidence during activities without falling or experiencing a sense of unsteadiness. Each item is scored ranging from 0 to 100. Higher scores are indicative of higher perceived stability. | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Change in perceived fatigue during activities of daily living measured by the Fatigue Severity Scale - FSS | The FSS questionnaire contains nine items that rate the severity of your fatigue symptoms on daily-life activities. Each item is scored ranging from 1 to 7. Higher scores are indicative of higher perceived fatigue. | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Change in functional lower limbs strength as measured by the Five Times Sit to Stand Test - 5xSTS | The 5xSTS asses functional lower limbs strength, transitional movements, balance, and fall risk. The scoring is based on the amount of time a patient is able to transfer from a seated to a standing position and back to sitting five times. The lower the time to complete the test, the better the outcome of the test. | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Change in mobility and leg function performance as measured by the Timed 25 Foot Walk - T25FW | The T25FW is a quantitative mobility and leg function performance test based on a timed 25 foot walk. The patient is directed to one end of a clearly marked 25 foot course and is instructed to walk 25 feet as quickly as possible. The time is calculated from the initiation of the instruction and ends when the patient has reached the 25 foot mark. The task is immediately administered again by having the patient walk back the same distance. The score is the average of the two completed trials. | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Change in aerobic capacity and endurance as measured by the 6-Minute Walk Test - 6MWT | The 6MWT assess aerobic capacity and endurance. The distance covered over a time of 6 minutes is used as the outcome by which to compare changes in performance capacity. An increase in the distance walked indicates improvement in basic mobility | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Change in global cognitive functioning as measured by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment test - MoCA | The MoCA test is a screening battery which also includes subtests to assess frontal functions such as set-shifting, abstraction and cognitive flexibility (MoCA total score range: 0-30). High scores are indicative of better general cognitive performance. | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Change in visuoperceptual and attentional abilities as measured by the Trail Making Test - TMT parti A e B | The TMT is a neuropsychological test that involves visual scanning (TMT-A) and dual-task (TMT-B). The TMT is scored by how long it takes to complete each part of the test. High execution times indicate poor performance. | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Change in visuoperceptual and attentional abilities as measured by the Symbol Digit Modalities Test - SDMT, Smith A., 1973; Nocentini U., 2006 | The SDMT is a commonly used test to assess psychomotor speed. This paper-pencil measure involves a substitution task using a coding key with nine different abstract symbols, each paired with a numeral. Below the key, a series of these symbols is presented, and the participant is asked to write down the corresponding number for each symbol. The score consists of the number of correct substitutions within 90 seconds. Higher scores indicate better performance. | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Change in the perceived level of disability as measured by the World Health Organization disability assessment schedule 2.0 - WHODAS 2.0 | WHODAS 2.0 assesses the functioning and disability level in six domains (cognition, mobility, self-care, getting along, life activities, and participation in community activities) according to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). The summary scores for the WHODAS 2.0 will be obtained through 3 steps: 1) summing of item scores within each domain; 2) summing all six domain scores; 3) converting the summary score into a metric ranging from 0 to 100 (where 0 = no disability and 100 = full disability). | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Change in depressive symptoms as measured by the Beck Depression Inventory - BDI-II | The BDI-II is a 21-item questionnaire with each item rated on a 4-point scale (0-3). It is scored by summing ratings for each item (range 0-21). Higher scores indicate greater deflection of mood tone. | Baseline, 5 weeks after baseline, and follow-up (3 months after the end of treatment) |
| Technology Acceptance Model - TAM3 |
The TAM3 questionnaires evaluates the user acceptance of technology across 16 domains. Scoring is based on a Likert scale (from 1 = Strongly Disagree to 7 = Strongly Agree) or a 10-point Guttman scale. Higher scores are indicative of higher acceptance of technology. |
| 5 weeks after baseline |
| Barthel Index | The Barthel Index is a scale used to measure a person's ability to perform basic activities of daily living (ADLs) independently. It evaluates 10 functions such as feeding, bathing, dressing, toileting, mobility, and stair climbing. Each activity is scored based on the level of assistance required, with a total score ranging from 0 (completely dependent) to 100 (completely independent). | Baseline |
