What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of two different consultation methods for elderly individuals over 65 years old who can move independently. Participants will undergo the Five Times Sit To Stand test in two settings: first through a teleconsultation and then in a physical consultation, or vice versa. The study aims to determine which method yields better results and patient satisfaction. Follow-up assessments will track the number of falls over the next year.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could improve the accessibility and effectiveness of mobility assessments for elderly patients.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promising results in teleconsultation approaches for elderly care, suggesting potential success for this method.
