N2 - According to the World Health Organization, about 15% of persons who have a disability. Existing web applications are not easily accessible, particularly for people with disabilities. In this research, we present a combined method that consists of applying an automatic inspection with a WAVE tool and manual method. In this study, we employed an examination of the accessibility assessment of ePHoRt, a web platform for hip arthroplasty patient rehabilitation, from the physical therapist’s perspective. In this research, we included the application of 12 accessibility barriers for people with a low vision based on the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 and 2.2. The results obtained suggest that digital ramps and WCAG have more accessible and inclusive web platform
