This document discusses using remote presence robots to improve access to physical therapy for people with chronic low back pain in remote areas. It provides background on the high burden of chronic low back pain, and the lack of access to physical therapy in remote communities. The document describes a pilot project using a remote presence robot to allow a physical therapist to assess and provide initial treatment to patients in a remote northern Saskatchewan community. It outlines the robot's capabilities, the research question and design, the model of care involving an interprofessional team, and provides an example of an assessment done using the robot. The results showed improved range of motion and function for the patient after the remote assessment and follow up via the robot.
