Summary

Our study will include 60 patients diagnosed with meniscus degeneration in the Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation of the Faculty of Health Sciences of Marmara University. Volunteers will be informed about the purpose of the study and the evaluations and treatments to be carried out, and their consent will be obtained by reading the 'Informed Volunteer Consent Form' and obtaining their signatures. The sample group and distribution will be determined as 30 asynchronous telerehabilitation groups and 30 synchronous telerehabilitation groups. Our study is a randomized controlled trial. Groups will be formed in a randomized manner and blinded study design will be used to evaluate outcome parameters. Patients beginning the rehabilitation program will be evaluated at the start of the study, at week 4, week 8, and week 16. Demographic information of the patients participating in the study will be obtained using the demographic data form. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, WOMET index for functionality and quality of life, functionality with Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale and quality of life with Patient Generated Index (PGI) and Short Form-12 (SF-12) scales; Functional mobility Timed Up and Go Test (TUG), functional capacity 2 Minutes Walk Test (2 MWT), balance Balance Master, proprioception and muscle strength Isokinetic assessment device, lower extremity neuromuscular function level 30 sec Sit Up and 5 Sit \& Go performance tests will be evaluated with Our study will investigate the comparison of the effects of asynchronous and synchronous telerehabilitation programs on pain, functional limitation, muscle strength and quality of life in patients with meniscal degeneration.
