Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of telerehabilitation program on COVID-19 symptoms, quality of life, level of depression, perception of dyspnea, sleep, fatigue, kinesiophobia and patient satisfaction in individuals diagnosed with COVID-19.
Detailed Description
Because of the risk of infection, telerehabilitation applications are recommended for patients with COVID-19. There are no studies in the literature evaluating the effectiveness of telerehabilitation program after COVID-19. In particular, the importance of the first eight weeks after the disease was emphasized. It is thought that the telerehabilitation program will improve the functional capacities and quality of life of patients in order to adapt to the daily life after the infection more easily, to cope with the symptoms brought about by the disease more easily and to prevent the respiratory distress, intensive care stay and inactivity due to muscle weakness.
