DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING OF A TELEREHABILITION SYSTEM FOR PATIENTS WITH OSTEOARTHRITIS OF THE.
 KNEE (AGES 40-70 YEARS, GRADE 1-3, ACCORDING TO KELLGREN AND LAWRENCE) This study aims to
 develop and compare two methods of implementing a therapeutic exercise program for knee
 osteoarthritis: face-to-face sessions versus a telerehabilitation program. The
 telerehabilitation system will allow remote delivery of exercises with real-time monitoring
 and feedback. Measurement tools will assess various dimensions of knee osteoarthritis,
 ensuring comprehensive evaluation. Two experimental groups will receive either face-to-face
 or telerehabilitation sessions twice a week for eight weeks. Both groups will follow
 structured exercise programs, with the telerehabilitation group receiving remote instructions
 and feedback. Measurements will be taken before and after the intervention period, as well as
 at a three-month follow-up. Expected results include confirming and potentially enhancing
 findings regarding the effectiveness of remote rehabilitation for knee osteoarthritis. The
 study anticipates that telerehabilitation intervention could be equally or more effective
 than face-to-face intervention, ultimately providing a personalized, self-managed solution
 for managing chronic conditions like knee osteoarthritis.
