Co-developed theory based approaches to intervention design offer an inclusive and transparent way to develop novel and meaningful interventions for people with complex health conditions. The ToC is wholly transparent in its design and content. Together with the identified behaviour change techniques, the theory informs the protocol for a feasibility study evaluating a telerehabilitation intervention. Importantly, it allows the opportunity to revise, adapt and improve the programme theory for further implementation and evaluation.
