Background/objectives: Digital video is widely available and is used sporadically in clinical settings to evaluate patients, but whether it helps improve clinical management has not been determined. The aim of this study was to assess whether recorded video in addition to still images can improve residents' diagnostic and management accuracy and confidence with pediatric teledermatology cases.
Methods: Dermatology residents from three programs were assigned alternately to an online survey with 15 pediatric teledermatology cases presented with still images only (still) or still images plus recorded video (mixed).
