| Summary: | The article examines how “sensory work” is performed during remote medical consultations. The study is based on video-recordings of simulated consultations and self-confrontation interviews with physicians. We analyze how physicians, through distributed attention and multimodal strategies (gestures, framing, verbalizations), adapt their clinical practices to “sense at a distance”. The results show that sensory awareness, essential for making a diagnosis, integrates interactive (creation of affordances and co-production of visual cues) and reflexive (awareness of sensory cues) dimensions. This study offers avenues for the training of healthcare professionals, highlighting the importance of reflexivity in technology-mediated clinical activity.
