Description
Rodrigo Beraldo and co-authors test whether a shoulder exam done by video call can spot rotator cuff damage as well as a scan. Remote care is growing for bone and joint care, but its worth for this shoulder fault was unclear. Thirty-two patients took part, with an average age near sixty years.
Each patient did three standard shoulder moves on a video call and again in person, while scans read by experts served as the truth check. The video tests caught most true cases, much like the in-person tests. The two routes agreed well on pain, less well on weakness. The authors see video exams as a sound first sort, with scans still needed to confirm.
