Healthcare professionals worldwide now have access to an extensive collection of evidence-based examination technique videos on Physiopedia Plus (Plus), with the library reaching over 200 videos and continuing to grow. 

As our members will know, the Physiopedia Plus online learning platform is always evolving with the continuous addition of new courses to groundbreaking support tools like the Physiopedia AI Assistant (PAI). One resource that we have long been keen to develop is a comprehensive library of technique videos, and we are delighted to announce that we now have more than 200 of them! Each video includes simple step-by-step instructions and supporting evidence for the technique as well as details of the accuracy where relevant and further reading, including links to any relevant clinical practice guidelines. The videos offer a quick look in the moment, or have plenty of detail for more comprehensive learning for those that seek it – giving practitioners the knowledge foundation needed for confident clinical application.

The video library spans all body areas and complexity levels, accommodating learners from new graduates to experienced specialists. Basic techniques such as manual muscle testing and the active straight leg raise provide fundamental assessment skills for early-career practitioners, whilst advanced procedures like the brachial plexus compression test offer specialised knowledge for experienced clinicians seeking to expand their expertise.

This visual learning approach addresses the global challenge of standardising examination techniques across different healthcare settings and training backgrounds. By providing consistent, evidence-based demonstrations, the video library helps bridge knowledge gaps that can exist between different educational systems and clinical environments worldwide. Healthcare professionals in resource-limited settings now have access to the same high-quality technique demonstrations as their colleagues in well-resourced facilities, promoting equity in rehabilitation education globally.

Plus members have complete access to the entire technique video library, enabling them to reference specific examination procedures whenever needed during clinical practice or continuing education activities. This on-demand access supports flexible learning that fits around busy clinical schedules and diverse working patterns.

For those interested in checking out the video content before committing to membership, sample technique videos are available through Physiopedia’s YouTube channel. Regular technique demonstrations also appear on our social media platforms, providing glimpses of the comprehensive resources available to Plus members.
