Use Cases: Drawing Templates in Action

  1. Orthopaedics: Orthopaedic surgeons can use skeletal templates to discuss surgical plans with patients and their families.
  2. Physiotherapy: Physiotherapists can use body drawing templates to identify problem areas and track recovery progress over multiple sessions. These templates can be invaluable in conditions like sports injuries or chronic pain management.
  3. Paediatrics: Paediatricians can use simpler, child-friendly templates to make the consultation process less intimidating for children.
  4. Occupational Therapy: Occupational therapists can use hand and tool templates to discuss grip and manipulation exercises, aiding in the rehabilitation of hand injuries or conditions.
  5. Telehealth: Drawing templates can also be used in telehealth consultations for easier diagnosis and explanation of conditions remotely.
  6. Dermatology: Dermatologists can use templates to map skin conditions over time, offering a visual progress report for conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or melanoma.
  7. Educational Purposes: Medical educators can use drawing templates as teaching aids for both patients and medical students.

Treatment notes templates that support custom body charts mean that you can write text-based notes and you can draw on diagrams using an iPad, your finger, or a mouse!

Documenting injuries, Range of Motion (ROM) measurements, and patient progress over time becomes straightforward with Cliniknote’s drawing features.

Cliniknote also enables you to upload photos of your patients and annotate them with arrows, text, or a freehand pen. This is particularly useful for creating medical drawings that are easy to understand and share with your patients or medical team.
