A Video is Worth a Thousand Words: The Use of Home Videos in Pediatric Neurology.

The use of home video recordings (HVRs) may aid in the diagnosis of neurological disorders. However, this practice remains underutilized. Through an anonymous survey, we sought to understand the perspectives of healthcare providers regarding the sharing of HVRs alongside referrals for responsive and economical pediatric neurology care. This was timely given COVID-19 has worsened wait times for diagnosis and consequently treatment. Most providers agree that sharing of HVRs improves patient care (93.1%: 67/73) and prevents both additional investigations (67%: 49/73) and hospital admissions (68.5%: 50/73). However, a minority of providers (21.9 %: 16/73) currently share HVRs alongside their referrals.
