Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The exercises to be applied to the groups will include breathing exercises, passive range of motion exercises within the pain limit for the joints associated with the surgery area, and strengthening exercises for the non-surgical areas.
Semi-structured focus group interviews will be held with the participants twice, before and after the 6-week exercise program. In the semi-structured focus group interviews, the same questions will be asked to all participants and the verbal answers to these questions will be recorded with voice recorders. Compared to taking notes by hand; It will be preferable to record the conversation with a voice recorder because it has advantages such as recording all the interviews and allowing the interviewer to focus on the interview. In the pre-exercise interview, questions will be asked to determine the patient's views about exercises and the barriers to starting the exercise. In the interview held at the end of the exercise program, questions will be asked to learn the views/perceptions of the patients about the results of the exercise program. Thematic analysis method will be used in the evaluation of the data.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Experimental group 1: Supervised Exercise by a physiotherapist via face to face
Participants in this group will be included in an exercise program for 6 weeks, 2 days a week and 45 minutes each session with supervised by a physiotherapist via face to face. The exercises will focus on breathing exercises, passive range of motion exercises within the pain limit for the joints associated with the surgery area, and strengthening exercises for the non-surgical areas.
Supervised Exercise by a physiotherapist via face to face
The exercises are performed by the participants under the supervision of a physiotherapist via face-to-face.
Experimental group-2: Supervised Exercise by a physiotherapist via video conference
Participants in this group will be included in an exercise program for 6 weeks, 2 days a week and 45 minutes each session with supervised by a physiotherapist via video conference. The exercises will focus on breathing exercises, passive range of motion exercises within the pain limit for the joints associated with the surgery area, and strengthening exercises for the non-surgical areas.
Supervised Exercise by a physiotherapist via video conference
The exercises are performed by the participants under the supervision of a physiotherapist via video conference.
Control group: Unsupervised exercise
Home based exercises will be explained to the patients and they will be asked to perform these exercises 2 days a week for 6 weeks.
No interventions assigned to this group
