Abstract In order to diagnose and monitor a patient’s condition, patients and clinicians routinely have to establish how the patient’s body feels or should feel for the patient, the sense through which they establish the location, movement, and actions of the patient’s body. These experiences are inherently internal for the patient.

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, physiotherapy services have routinely started to use video consultations to monitor and assess patients. This poses a new challenge to participants. Patients still do exercises and physical assessments, but accurate assessment cannot be supported through physical touch. They have to rely on other means to establish the patient’s experiences of their body. This paper explores how patients and physios rely on the physio’s professional vision and the patient’s body awareness (or proprioception) to establish the patient’s abilities (e.g., strength, flexibility, skills) and feelings (e.g., pain, stretch) in the context of monitoring and assessment, and instructing the patient in new exercises.

The paper is part of an NIHR-funded project: Supporting Consultations in Remote Physiotherapy. Analysis is based on 15 video-recorded video consultations, collected across two NHS Trusts in three specialist physiotherapy settings: long-term pain, neurorehabilitation, and orthopaedics.


Presenter’s Bio: Lucas Seuren is a post-doctoral researcher affiliated with the Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences at the University of Oxford. He investigates the interactional organisation of video consultations in secondary care in the UK NHS, with a particular interest in how participants accomplish physical assessments and exercises remotely.
