Summary

This randomized controlled trial evaluated the effectiveness of a telerehabilitation-based exercise program in individuals who had undergone surgery for lumbar disc herniation. Participants were assigned to a control group, a home exercise group, or a telerehabilitation group. The exercise programs started four weeks after surgery and continued for eight weeks, three days per week, with each session lasting 30-45 minutes. The home exercise group performed the exercise program independently at home, while the telerehabilitation group performed the same program under remote supervision of a physiotherapist using video calls. The control group continued their routine daily activities without participating in a structured exercise program during the study period. Pain, disability, physical activity, and health-related quality of life were assessed before and after the eight-week intervention period.
