Practical and timely, this book presents the current best practices for performing musculoskeletal examination remotely via telemedicine. It takes an anatomical approach, covering all joints and disorders commonly seen in the clinic, including preparation and general principles, the upper and lower extremities and the axial skeleton. For each region, the challenges and limitations of telemedicine are systematically highlighted and discussed, with techniques clearly described and illustrated. Concluding chapters present telemedicine procedures for both the functional assessment of a patient and evaluation and management of respiratory muscle dysfunction.
Orthopedic and sports medicine practitioners, as well as general physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants who treat patients with musculoskeletal disorders, will find this book highly engaging and enlightening.
