Our study will be randomized controlled. Familial Mediterranean Fever patients between the ages of 12-18 will be included in the study and will be divided into 2 groups. The first group will be applied a synchronous supervised online exercise program under the supervision of a physiotherapist, and the second group will be applied an asynchronous video-based exercise program. The exercise program will be carried out for 8 weeks, 2 days a week. There will be 3 sets, 8 repetitions in 1 set in the exercise program and will be progressed according to tolerance. In the exercise program, the synchronous group will perform the exercises with the supervision of a physiotherapist via the Zoom application, while the asynchronous video-based group will upload the exercises to the system asynchronously via a channel on YouTube that only patients can access. Feedback will be received from the asynchronous group by phone. Our exercise program will be organized with the progression of exercises such as squat, lunge, stepping, running in place and jumping. The primary outcome measures of the study are the evaluation of fatigue (VAS) and functional capacity (6-Minute Walking Test). Our secondary outcome measures are the evaluation of pain, balance, physical fitness and walking. For the assessment of fatigue: Visual Analog Scale (VAS), PedsQL Multidimensional Fatigue Scale, Fatigue Severity Scale; For the assessment of functional capacity: 6 Minute Walk Test, 30 sec Sit-to-Stand Test, 10-Step Climbing Test, Pacer aebonic fitness test, Half Squat Test; For the assessment of balance: One-Leg Stand Test, Functional Forward Reach Test, Kinvent (K-plate)-K Force measurement evaluation set, Digitsole Smart Insole System for the assessment of walking; For the assessment of physical fitness: FitnessGram test battery; For the assessment of pain: VAS will be used.
