Description
Summary:New technologies, for example, telerehabilitation (TR) tools, can support physiotherapists' work. Even though studies have demonstrated their potential, TR is not yet fully implemented in Austrian outpatient physiotherapy.

This study aims to investigate opinions and experiences of physiotherapists in Austria regarding TR and its implementation in different clinical fields.
