Exact excerpt

A clinical trial included 46 eligible patients randomly assigned to Brochure (n = 23) and Telerehabilitation (n = 23) groups. Both groups were evaluated before and after the home program. At baseline, dynamic lumbar muscle performance was higher in the Brochure Group (p = 0.018). Following the intervention, both groups improved in most outcomes; no significant between-group differences were found for resting pain, night pain, or the SF-12 physical component. After adjustment for baseline values, telerehabilitation showed greater improvement in activity-related pain and dynamic lumbar muscle performance. The home program was four weeks, and exercise adherence averaged 91% in the Telerehabilitation Group, with all participants completing at least 80% of prescribed sessions.
