Validity and Reliability of Tele-Assessment Based Core Performance and Functional Capacity Tests in Healthy Individuals

The COVID-19 pandemic process has created the need for social isolation and quarantine, and restrictions have occurred in access to healthcare services. In this process, the trend towards alternative methods that will provide access to health services and the need for telehealth services has increased. As a result of this, when we look at the literature, evaluation methods used in the clinical environment in physiotherapy are frequently encountered in tele-evaluation. There is a need for validity and reliability studies of these evaluation methods in terms of tele-assessment. This study was designed to determine the validity and reliability of trunk endurance and functional capacity tests applied by the tele-assessment method in healthy individuals.
