The present randomized controlled trial aimed to investigate the effects of home-based telemedicine with wearable devices and usual care on pain-related outcomes in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain, compared to usual care alone. The patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain were randomly allocated to the usual care group or the telemedicine group, which participated in telemedicine with wearable devices, the objective data from which were recorded, in conjunction with usual care for six months. The primary outcome measure was the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for pain.

Digital technologies, such as virtual and augmented reality (VR and AR) are mainly used in the preclinical and clinical phases in neurosurgery and orthopedics. In contrast, they are used less frequently in visceral surgery as the intraoperative deformation is challenging for the clinical use. The application of VR is used successfully particularly in education and training.

Background: Physical therapy (PT) is widely employed in osteoarthritis (OA). This study aimed to explore the research development of PT for OA and to identify the emerging treatment, and verify its efficacy.
Materials And Methods: The Web of Science Core Collection was used to conduct the bibliometric analysis.
Background: Prior work has demonstrated that telemedicine in orthopedic surgery is cost-effective and can yield good clinical outcomes with high patient satisfaction. However, few studies have investigated the use of telemedicine in orthopedic oncology. In this study, we assessed the effect of telemedicine on (1) potential cost savings for orthopedic oncologic patients and (2) clinical outcomes as measured by unexpected in-person clinic visits and missed complications.
