Telerehabilitation for Lower Back Pain (ARBOR-Th Trial)
Trial Summary
The trial information does not specify whether you need to stop taking your current medications. It is best to discuss this with the trial coordinators or your doctor.
Research shows that telerehabilitation can effectively manage chronic low back pain by providing remote access to therapy, which is especially beneficial for those in low-resource areas. Studies indicate that telerehabilitation is as effective as traditional clinic-based therapy in reducing pain and improving health outcomes.
12345Telerehabilitation is generally considered safe for humans, as it allows remote access to medical treatments and ongoing monitoring, which can be beneficial for patients, especially those in remote areas.
12367Telerehabilitation is unique because it allows patients to receive treatment remotely, making it accessible for those who are physically or economically disadvantaged. It facilitates multidisciplinary management and provides the opportunity for early intervention, ongoing monitoring, and cost savings, especially in low-resource areas.
