Using the ViFive app made my telehealth appointment with my patient go much smoother. Instead of using gestures and long explanations to explain which muscle was giving him pain, I could show him a screenshot and replay the motion so that he could identify his problem areas. I’ve never seen patients so excited to do another session and try to improve. I don’t feel like I’m missing the tools I normally would rely on in the clinic like a goniometer–it’s all included. I finally have a way to show a patient what their spine looks like! Even with a mirror in the clinic, it’s hard to show a patient how their spine curves and how it relates to our PT goals. Instead of trying to explain how the patient is moving better, I was able to easily show him what percent improvement he had in his range of motion compared to last session. When my patient asked me why we were working on his neck muscles and not his back muscles, I could simply pull up the screenshot that showed how his neck and back muscles connected and the asymmetry he had side to side. The Replay feature peels away the busy background of the clinic and any distracting information and gives me a forthright, accurate way to assess a patient’s movement. It means I have more time to spend with my patient on education and exercise! Read more
