The document describes SoPhy, socks with sensors and a web interface designed to enhance physiotherapists' ability to assess lower limb movements during video consultations. A study was conducted with 10 physiotherapists and 1 actor to test SoPhy versus video alone. Physiotherapists reported higher diagnostic confidence and needing fewer repetitions of exercises like squats when using SoPhy. It captured weight distribution, range of motion, and foot orientation data not available through video alone. The findings suggest wearable sensors can provide deeper insights during telehealth assessments.
Parental involvement is key in helping children with autism, but understanding the child is not easy. The document describes a study that used a video-based parent training module and feedback module to help parents improve one-to-one interactions with their children in a comfortable setting. The training module included parts that encouraged equal participation and used static video frames to capture dynamic interactions, while addressing issues like technology being distracting. Researchers suggested capturing where the action is and considering wearable videography.
This document outlines the research phases and studies conducted to develop and evaluate a system called SoPhy, which uses socks with sensors to capture lower body movement data and visualize it to support physiotherapists in video consultations. The research included observations of current video consultations, prototyping SoPhy, laboratory evaluations to assess SoPhy's diagnostic efficacy, and field deployments at a hospital. Key findings were that SoPhy allowed physiotherapists to assess patients with fewer repetitions, increased confidence in assessments, and guided more specific treatments over video. The research contributes to understanding bodily communication in physiotherapy and enhancing clinical video consultations.

Similar to Doctor, Can You See My Squats?: Understanding Bodily Communication in Video Consultations for Physiotherapy. (20)
The document discusses lessons learned from designing a smart clothing telehealth system for hospital use. It describes prototyping a smart clothing system, conducting a lab study, and field study. Key lessons included: designing for a variety of body types, supporting comparison-based reflection of health data over time, and embracing the constraints of smart clothing technologies.
Teleconsultation refers to the electronic communication that happens between a clinician and patient for the purpose of diagnostic or therapeutic advice. Teleconsultations are particularly useful to provide healthcare services in situations where face-to-face consultation may not be easy. So far, the teleconsultations sessions are primarily supported by audio and video based communication. Although audio and video based communications are advantageous for teleconsultation, they may not fully support all the diagnostic tasks that are carried out in a face-to-face consultation session. For example, diagnosis of physical injuries may require physical handling through touch, which is not possible over video based communication. To address this, I put forward a novel approach of using tangible interfaces and artifacts to support physical diagnostic tasks in a teleconsultation sessions.
The aim of this thesis is to contribute to the understanding on how to design such tangible interfaces. The research will be carried out in three phases. In the first phase, I will investigate the experience of users with technology involved in a teleconsultation session through observation studies to gather a deep understanding on existing teleconsultation processes. These insights will inform the design for tangible interfaces to support teleconsultation session. The prototyping will be carried out in second phase. Finally, in the third phase I will field deploy the prototype to gather and understand its implication in teleconsultation sessions. This investigation will guide me towards a first conceptual understanding of the design of tangible interfaces for teleconsultation sessions. Ultimately, my aim is to invoke thinking towards natural (tangible) interfaces in supporting teleconsultations to get closer to the experience of face-to-face consultation.
