Technical issues in exercise video consultations do not negatively impact exercise intensity for participants with complex chronic conditions: a retrospective audit
Technical issues in this exercise video consultation intervention were not common and did not adversely affect exercise intensity attainment in-session. However, many participants did not achieve target intensities, possibly due to metabolic co-morbidities. These findings support the viability of video consultations for exercise delivery, emphasizing the need for tailored training and support to optimize exercise in complex patient populations. Future research should explore strategies to enhance exercise intensity during virtual consultations for people with metabolic co-morbidities.
