What this Trial Is About
This study aims to enhance at-home therapy by introducing a new device called the BAND Connect's VirtuaCare™ platform. The study aims to determine whether patients can improve their adherence to at-home exercises using this device. Currently, research indicates that only 35% of patients undergoing physical therapy treatment fully comply with their prescribed plans of care, often neglecting their at-home exercises. To address this issue, a set of smart exercise tools called VirtuaCare™ has been developed. This platform provides patients with instructions on performing at-home exercises and offers real-time biofeedback to help them adjust their form if necessary. The study seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of BAND CVCP in assisting patients and improving their overall success with at-home therapy.
