Area of Science:

  • Medical Technology
  • Rehabilitation Medicine
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • Current telemedicine solutions are limited in their ability to perform comprehensive physical examinations.
  • The Virtual Remote Tele-Physical Examination (VIRTEPEX) system utilizes augmented reality and motion tracking for remote musculoskeletal assessments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the feasibility of the VIRTEPEX system as an adjunct to telehealth for musculoskeletal strength assessments.
  • To assess the system's potential to improve remote physical examinations.

Main Methods:

  • A pilot study involving 12 participants with upper extremity issues.
  • Strength evaluations were conducted using in-person, telehealth, VIRTEPEX, and composite methods.
  • Feasibility was measured by recruitment, completion rates, and safety; inter-rater agreement was a secondary outcome.

Main Results:

  • The study achieved 80% recruitment and 100% completion with no adverse events.
  • In-person and telehealth assessments showed the highest overall agreement (85.71%).
  • VIRTEPEX demonstrated comparable or higher agreement than telehealth for specific movements like shoulder flexion.

Conclusions:

  • The VIRTEPEX system is feasible for asynchronous remote examinations.
  • VIRTEPEX has the potential to supplement and add value to existing telehealth platforms.
  • Further research with larger sample sizes and system refinement is recommended.
