Evaluating Remote Rehabilitation for Sarcopenia in Older Adults: Balancing Challenges and Opportunities

  • Hao Zhang;

ABSTRACT

We are writing to share my thoughts on the article “A 4-Week Mobile App–Based Telerehabilitation Program vs Conventional In-Person Rehabilitation in Older Adults With Sarcopenia: Randomized Controlled Trial” published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research [1]. This research presents a significant exploration into the rehabilitation of older adults with sarcopenia, comparing a mobile app - based telerehabilitation approach with traditional in - person rehabilitation. However, several elements of the study are worthy of in - depth discussion.
