Effectiveness of tele-rehabilitation after total hip replacement: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

CONCLUSION: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, internet-based tele-rehabilitation and face-to-face rehabilitation had the same effect on patients after total hip replacement, and compliance was higher in the tele-rehabilitation group, but attention should be devoted to standardizing this form of rehabilitation to avoid adverse events. In addition, the number and quality of included studies in this study are limited, and the outcome indicators and intervention means have not been unified. More high-quality studies are needed to verify these conclusions to better evaluate the effectiveness and advantages of telerehabilitation.PMID:37990882 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2023.2280070
