BackgroundElbow conditions and pathology are commonly seen in the outpatient clinic. Telephone and video visits can allow for expeditious assessment of elbow complaints, without the added challenges of commuting for a clinic-based evaluation. In the setting of a pandemic, the benefits of telemedicine are apparent, but the time and effort saved from being able to remotely evaluate musculoskeletal conditions are also useful in a non-pandemic situation. In this modern era of telemedicine, protocols need to be developed to provide guidance for a remote elbow evaluation. As with all musculoskeletal conditions, the history about the elbow complaint allows the clinician to develop a differential diagnosis, which is either supported or refuted based on physical examination and diagnostic studies. Appropriate questions asked over a telephone call can provide answers that lead the clinician to a specific diagnosis and treatment plan. Furthermore, responses to these same questions can be further supported by a video assessment of the affected elbow, which may provide additional evidence to support a diagnosis and plan of care.AimsTo outline possible questions, responses, and video examination techniques to aid the clinician in elbow examinations conducted via telemedicine.MethodsWe have created a pathway for step-by-step evaluation to help physicians direct their patients through the typical elements of a thorough elbow examination via telehealth.ResultsWe have created tables of questions, answers, and instructions to help guide the physician through different aspects of a telehealth elbow examination. We have also included a glossary of descriptive images that demonstrate each maneuver.ConclusionThis article provides a structured guide to efficiently extracting clinically relevant information during telemedicine examinations of the elbow.
