Tele-assessment of the Performance Tests in Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis (Teleassessment)
The COVID-19 pandemic widely affected delivery mode of healthcare services. While fewer number of patients were allowed to attend face-to-face rehabilitation sessions, some services were totally unavailable due to the safety measures. The COVID-19 crisis highlighted the value and accelerated the improvement of "tele-assessment and tele-rehabilitation" applications. Consequently, reliable remote assessment approaches were required to evaluate the effectiveness of the remote programs. While tests such as TUG, SLS, and 30CST are valid and reliable for clinical use in patients with knee OA, their psychometric properties are yet to be investigated when used as tele-assessment tests. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the intra- and inter-rater reliability of the TUG, SLS, and 30CST as remote tests in patients with knee OA.
