- This video describes how to conduct a physical exam using telemedicine utilizing both visual observation and common vital signs. You will also learn how to instruct patients to help you in the exam process by talking them through some aspects of the exam, such as evaluating the sinuses.
This video is for research only. The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology does not endorse products. Be sure to consult your state and local HIPAA and telehealth regulations as they may differ across the country. A practitioner should also be aware of the limitations of taking a physical exam while using a video platform. This approach will not be the ideal solution for all patient encounters, but it is one tool to consider to meet the needs of your practice and your patients.
What an awesome video!! I finished medical school in 2013 and we didn't receive any teaching on how to conduct a physical exam via telemedicine. This is the best video I've ever seen on topic!
That was just excellent!
I can’t wait to see the next section 😊
Extremely helpful
Well done!
Dr. Elliott, I've found video through my EMR can be poor due to limited bandwidth. Offer the patient reconnecting through another platform - can be much better, and my patients appreciate it. Though you won't be able to capture the image into your EMR.
thanks
I think this is the way to go now. I am looking to get a physical exam using telemedicine, I can get blood panels at Quest Diagnostics and I have a BP cuff and KardiaMobile | FDA-Cleared EKG and a few other items. At the same time I would like it to be in my geography if I should need to later follow up with the doctor. How do i find someone doing this? Is anyone doing this in S CA? or more specifically Orange County/Long Beach area?
When will you post the next video?
Thank you for this video! Was wondering how you would exam someone with hemiplegia/monoplegia? Thanks!
Perhaps ask them to have someone assist them in performing the exam? They may usually have someone accompany them in the physical office, and could do the same in a virtual setting
Very helpful video. I am a medical biller and my physician was concerned with this aspect of billing for telemedicine visits.
Specially the cranial nerves i would appreciate it
what if they dont have a thermometer, and cant afford a blood pressure cuff?
I honestly hope they can afford MD. I honestly know what you mean
=/ sad . hope there's a help.
Can you post part 2 of this video?

Could You do a video for a Neurology please
Honestly, your ‘virtual visit’ is more thorough than ‘physical visit’ in most busy offices. Most visits are ‘problem oriented’, few doctors are trained to after ‘things’ patients don’t complain or it’s ‘soliciting’. Physical exam plays a smaller role (it is important in some cases) today. labs, imaging, biopsy play a much bigger and objective role. Above of all, it’s doctors’ knowledge plays a critical role in diagnosis and treatment. Without forming a reasonable differential diagnosis, an inexperienced doctor will have no clue what to look for even he/she can live with patient for a whole week! The remaining visit is annual physical, without specific complaints, I think most providers are just following national guidelines e.g. lipid profile, colonoscopy etc.. few doctors will create their own recipes to check on their patients. If there’s something suspicious, go back to ‘problem oriented’ visit. That’s just my two cents.
Medicine From Milky Way Galaxy agree !
Ears??

We and our insurance companies are paying top dollar for this?
NO THANKS ON VIRTUAL ANNUAL PHYSICAL EXAMS
If a doctor is only gonna do a video visit they aren't a good doctor. Especially if it's a new patient. There is so much you're not going to know over a video as opposed to doing it yourself. It's bad enough that many patients already feel like they are on a assembly line with doctors rushing appointments.
