Don’t be put off by the title. This is a fascinating conversation between MMRU's Pat Vallance and digital health researcher and physiotherapist Dr Mark Merolli.
It is also a really timely conversation with many musculoskeletal practitioners jumping into the deep end with one or more aspects of digital health over the last 12 months, many for the first time.
Dr Mark Merolli is a senior lecturer/research fellow in the Centre for Health, Exercise, and Sports Medicine (CHESM) and department of physiotherapy at the University of Melbourne and a senior physiotherapist at Complete Sports Care in Hawthorn, Melbourne, Australia.
Mark provides us with an overview and definition of digital health and the many forms it takes, how we can appraise the quality of digital health tools and how clinicians can embrace but also understand the limitations of new technology.
