Head-to-head comparison of 📞 vs 💻 video #telehealth lead by @UQ_CHSR COH. Seventy-nine papers across multiple disciplines in health care: 50% of studies show #video to be superior, 35% find both phone and video to be equal in their effectiveness. More 👇🏼

Now out - a nice collaborative effort looking @ Expanding access to telehealth in Aus #CR services academic.oup.com/ehjdh/artic… - most CR services have capacity & readiness to provide hybrid (in-person & telehealth) care but require specific supports to enable this.

For now, many prefer to conduct physical examinations & assess exercise capacity in-person - more work is required in this space to enable this to be done well remotely. However, more education and supervised exercise training could be delivered remotely to bridge access gaps

So much happening in the international #CR space. If your service doesn’t have a method to capture high quality data then I highly encourage the use of the @ICCPR registry —- now with the option of certification and suitable for low resource settings. Please share wisely
