Virtual home exercise program for shoulder rehab
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a virtual home exercise program (VirtuaCare) for people with shoulder problems who need physical therapy. It aims to see if doing exercises at home with virtual guidance works as well as standard care.
