What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
TelerehabilitationOther
Home exercises will be delivered through a video mobile application. In this application, exercises for knee osteoarthritis will be presented according to their types (stretching, strengthening, etc.). Videos deemed appropriate by the physiotherapist will be added to the exercise prescription and sent to the patients via message. Patients will have the opportunity to remotely access their own exercise prescription with visual, auditory and written commands.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
On a 0 cm straight line or numeric scale, the patient is asked to mark the pain they feel (0: no pain, 10: excruciating pain).
Measured: Change from Baseline VAS at 8 weeks
The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC)
WOMAC consists of 3 main headings: pain intensity, stiffness and physical function. The total score ranges from 0 (no disability) to 96 (complete disability).
Measured: Change from Baseline WOMAC at 8 weeks
Satisfaction and expectation assessment
On a 0 cm straight line or numeric scale, the patient will be asked to mark their pre-treatment expectation and post-treatment satisfaction level. 0 will represent the lowest expectation and satisfaction and 10 the highest expectation or satisfaction.
Measured: Change from Baseline Satisfaction and expectation assessment at 8 weeks
