An interventional study of Exercise and home based exercise in Telerehabilitation, Posture and Lordosis, sponsored by Hacettepe University. Completed at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Open to participants aged 18 Years to 25 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-05-15.
Sponsored by Hacettepe University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Supportive care
this study aims to investigate the effect of telerehabilitation with web-based exercises on postural deformities in individuals with postural problems. This randomized controlled study is planned to include 40 individuals. The individuals will be university students between the ages of 18-25. The students will be divided into two groups: home exercise program and telerehabilitation group. Exercises will be applied to both groups 3 times a week for 6 weeks.
Objective: Recent studies have shown that the use of telerehabilitation in different areas can result in significant clinical gains. The effect of telerehabilitation on head forward posture, thoracic hyperkyphosis and lumbar hyperlordosis is not yet fully understood. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effect of telerehabilitation with web-based exercises on postural deformities in individuals with postural problems.
Method: This randomized controlled study is planned to include 40 individuals. The individuals will be university students between the ages of 18-25. The students will be divided into two groups: home program and telerehabilitation group. Exercises will be applied to both groups 3 times a week for 6 weeks. Individuals with postural problems will be evaluated for craniovertebral, kyphosis and lordosis angles, shortness of hamstring and pectoral muscles and trunk endurance. Craniovertebral, kyphosis and lordosis angles will be evaluated with the "Clinometer + Buble" application, muscle shortness will be evaluated with muscle shortness tests, and trunk endurance will be evaluated with trunk endurance tests.
30 studies on the registry are indexed under Lordosis; 5 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 40 is below the median of 50 across 15 interventional studies indexed under Lordosis.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.
