Abstract
Introduction: This study aimed to explore the feasibility of telehealth-obtained Timed Up and Go (TUG).
Methods: The TUG was administered twice during 1 visit. The TUG distance as set up by the participant was compared with the TUG set up by a rater. A second rater scored the TUG virtually, and a third rater scored session recordings twice, 30 days apart.
Results: There was a strong and significant correlation between the face-to-face and virtually obtained TUG scores using the patient-identified distances (r = 0.994; 95% confidence interval, 0.957-0.999).
Discussion: Virtual TUG measurements are comparable with those measured face-to-face.
