Summary

This study looked at whether physical tests for core strength and function in people with chronic low back pain can be done just as accurately over video as in person. Thirty-six adults completed tests like planks and chair stands both face-to-face and via a secure video call. The goal is to see if tele-assessment is a reliable option for monitoring back pain without needing to travel to a clinic.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that remote assessments are a reliable alternative to in-person visits for people with chronic low back pain, making care more accessible.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed observational study with only 36 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It does not test a treatment, only measurement methods.
