About this study
Official title: The Effects of Ergonomics Awareness Education and Exercise on Physical Activity, Quality of Life, and Musculoskeletal Discomfort in Remote Workers
This study aims to determine the effects of asynchronous and synchronous exercises, which are added to ergonomics awareness education, on musculoskeletal disorders, physical activity and quality of life.
- Being tested
- Asyncronized Exercise, Syncronized Exercise
- Medical subject headings
- Musculoskeletal Diseases
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Asyncronized ExerciseBehavioural
This group will be informed about ergonomics and protective exercises for the musculoskeletal system with an online seminar.
Syncronized ExerciseProcedure or surgery
This group will be informed about ergonomics and protective exercises for the musculoskeletal system with an online seminar. Then, participants will complete the 6 weeks of exercise training at an online video conference program two times a week under the physiotherapist's supervise.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Asyncronized Exercise Group | Active comparator | - Ergonomics awareness education and exercise suggestions Receives: Behavioral: Asyncronized Exercise |
| Syncronized Exercise Group | Experimental | - Ergonomics awareness education and than 6 weeks online supervised exercise training Receives: Procedure: Syncronized Exercise |

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Asyncronized Exercise and Syncronized Exercise in people with Ergonomics and Telerehabilitation, run by Istanbul Kültür University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Physical activty status (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Sep 2023.
