Özet

Objective: The opinions, satisfaction, and expectations of telemedicine can provide essential data for remote health services in individuals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The study aimed to demonstrate the views (barriersbenefits), satisfaction, and expectations of individuals with MS about telerehabilitation services. Methods: A prospective cross-sectional was conducted with 82 individuals with MS who received telerehabilitation services for at least one year. The participants have completed SymptoMScreen, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Telehealth Usability Questionnaire (TUQ), Telemedicine Satisfaction Questionnaire (TSQ), Telehealth Barriers Questionnaire (TBaQ and Telehealth Benefits Questionnaire (TBeQ). Results: As the age of individuals with MS increased, TUQ (r: -0.517, p < 0.001) and TBeQ (r: -0.383, p < 0.001) decreased, while TSQ (r: 0.405, p < 0.001) and TBaQ (r: 0.390, p < 0.001) increased. SymptoMScreen score (r: -0.288, p < 0.05) was weakly associated with TUQ. In addition, TUQ, TSQ, TBeQ, and TBaQ were strongly correlated (p < 0.001). Conclusion: In order to improve usability and satisfaction in telerehabilitation services, the age, symptom severity, and education levels of individuals with MS should be considered. Telehealth methods with high usability should be preferred to increase patient satisfaction.
