A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the usability and satisfaction of healthcare personnel and patients in rural areas using the TRAK tele-rehabilitation tool for shoulder pain. Participants will be randomly assigned to either an experimental group receiving telerehabilitation through the TRAK platform or a control group following a conventional at-home exercise protocol. The study will assess the effectiveness of the TRAK tool over an eight-week period, with participants completing health assessments and satisfaction questionnaires before and after the intervention. The goal is to enhance the quality and accessibility of rehabilitation services in rural settings.
