Summary

While the mortality rate in preterm births has decreased thanks to recent developments in the field of medicine, disability risk factors increase for premature babies. Premature birth, low birth weight, and all accompanying problems in this process reveal the concept of the risky baby. Early intervention is very important for these babies who are at risk for neurodevelopmental problems. Although early intervention is a general concept, the subject the investigators focus on is early physiotherapy approaches. Early physiotherapy approaches include many methods. However, recently, family-centered approaches have been emphasized and studies have been carried out on this issue; Likewise, the goal-oriented therapy approach, which is a treatment with a high level of evidence, is also being investigated. Telerehabilitation, on the other hand, has become a method that is frequently used with the increase in the use of technological methods. The effectiveness of family-centered, goal-oriented physiotherapy approaches is known in previous studies on this subject; There are studies conducted on a remotely monitored portable intelligent system created for telerehabilitation, but no studies have been found in which telerehabilitation has been applied using the real-time video conferencing method.
