Patient and Clinician Perceptions about Remote Video Visits for Musculoskeletal Problems: A Qualitative Study.
Article in The archives of bone and joint surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAn understanding of patient and clinician opinions about remote video musculoskeletal consultations might help determine how to increase appeal and utilization. The purpose of this study was to evaluate perceptions of remote video musculoskeletal consultations. Our research questions was what are patient and clinician facilitators and barriers for the use of remote video consultations?
methodsPrior to the COVID-19 pandemic 27 English speaking adult patients seeking ambulatory care for a musculoskeletal problem, and 10 English-speaking musculoskeletal clinicians were interviewed using a guide. Interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed, and coded using applied thematic analysis.
resultsPatient and clinician incentives for remote video consultations included increased convenience, lower costs, less waiting time, and a better experience. Patient and clinician barriers to remote video consultations included concerns about familiarity with technology, lack of personal interaction and physical examination, inability to perform procedures, difficulties with reimbursement (clinicians), as well as technical, logistical, and privacy issues.
conclusionThis qualitative study performed prior to the pandemic found that adoption of remote video consultation for musculoskeletal problems may improve with seamless, efficient, and effective care, at an affordable price, particularly if the human connection is similar to what occurs in person.
