Establishing The Efficacy Of Telemedicine As A Clinical Tool For Physiotherapists: From Systems Design To Randomised Controlled Trial

Trevor G. Russell’s 2010 book, Establishing the Efficacy of Telemedicine as a Clinical Tool for Physiotherapists: From Systems Design to Randomised Controlled Trial, is based on his University of Queensland doctoral thesis that systematically demonstrates the feasibility of telemedicine for physical therapists. The book sets forth a highly effective answer to skeptics on this point, especially in the context of the traditionally “hands-on” subset of physical therapy (PT) represented by supervised postoperative physical rehabilitation. Russell has included much specific detail, such that clinicians, information managers, and logisticians planning the rollout of a telehealth system could streamline that process by referring to this important guide.
