Abstract

Although exercises improve the outcome of patients with osteoarthritis, patient compliance is poor. Behaviour modification and measuring compliance remain the Holy Grail of healthcare professionals. The responses of a focus group of 20 volunteers to a novel automatic compliance recording augmented reality exercise app were studied. Full compliance was achieved in all cases and was measured and recorded by the app. Overall, the app itself received favorable responses regarding the user interface and user experience.
