Download or read book Multidisciplinary Teleconsultation in Developing Countries written by Michelangelo Bartolo and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-26 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a replicable model of multidisciplinary teleconsultation, designed and set up by Global Health Telemedicine, that offers very significant health benefits in remote and rural areas of developing countries. The model is based on experiences gained in sub-Saharan Africa while training and cooperating with local health professionals within the DREAM program, managed by the Community of Sant’Egidio. This program has to date treated almost 300,000 patients across many countries and has provided health education and disease prevention training to tens of millions. It originated in the context of the fight against AIDS but has been extended to encompass other pathologies and to exploit the capabilities of new telemedicine technologies that allow multispecialist teleconsultation (hence the acronym now represents “Disease Relief through Excellent and Advanced Means”). In addition to thorough description of the program, readers will find reflections and analysis on logistical, technical, sociological, and epidemiological issues. The book is divided into thematic chapters with easy-to-understand graphics. It will be a readily accessible source of information for professionals in international cooperation and global health students and professionals.

Download or read book The Role of Telehealth in an Evolving Health Care Environment written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-12-20 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1996, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) released its report Telemedicine: A Guide to Assessing Telecommunications for Health Care. In that report, the IOM Committee on Evaluating Clinical Applications of Telemedicine found telemedicine is similar in most respects to other technologies for which better evidence of effectiveness is also being demanded. Telemedicine, however, has some special characteristics-shared with information technologies generally-that warrant particular notice from evaluators and decision makers. Since that time, attention to telehealth has continued to grow in both the public and private sectors. Peer-reviewed journals and professional societies are devoted to telehealth, the federal government provides grant funding to promote the use of telehealth, and the private technology industry continues to develop new applications for telehealth. However, barriers remain to the use of telehealth modalities, including issues related to reimbursement, licensure, workforce, and costs. Also, some areas of telehealth have developed a stronger evidence base than others. The Health Resources and Service Administration (HRSA) sponsored the IOM in holding a workshop in Washington, DC, on August 8-9 2012, to examine how the use of telehealth technology can fit into the U.S. health care system. HRSA asked the IOM to focus on the potential for telehealth to serve geographically isolated individuals and extend the reach of scarce resources while also emphasizing the quality and value in the delivery of health care services. This workshop summary discusses the evolution of telehealth since 1996, including the increasing role of the private sector, policies that have promoted or delayed the use of telehealth, and consumer acceptance of telehealth. The Role of Telehealth in an Evolving Health Care Environment: Workshop Summary discusses the current evidence base for telehealth, including available data and gaps in data; discuss how technological developments, including mobile telehealth, electronic intensive care units, remote monitoring, social networking, and wearable devices, in conjunction with the push for electronic health records, is changing the delivery of health care in rural and urban environments. This report also summarizes actions that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) can undertake to further the use of telehealth to improve health care outcomes while controlling costs in the current health care environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teleconsultations allow patients to search, receive, and pay for medical consultations virtually. With its remote diagnosis and treatment capability, teleconsultations are proposed as a potential solution to a longstanding social problem, geographic disparities in healthcare. While it sounds promising, it is unclear whether teleconsultations actually mobilize healthcare access to underserved regions because there might be unforeseen frictions that suppress the virtual flow of healthcare. To understand the role of teleconsultations on geographic healthcare disparity, we first empirically investigate whether teleconsultations generate a virtual flow of healthcare to mitigate resource disparity. Second, we examine social, information, and geography frictions on the virtual healthcare flow. To this end, we curate unique longitudinal data that capture regional offline health resources and various regional characteristics and match them with teleconsultation instances over ten years (2006 ~ 2015). Our Exponential Random Graph Model analysis provides encouraging empirical evidence that teleconsultations connect physicians in resourceful regions and patients in underserved areas, a desirable direction that can alleviate geographic healthcare disparity. We find that social and information frictions, such as cultural and linguistic differences and limited media coverage, suppress the supposedly free flow of teleconsultations across regions. Further, while teleconsultation is anticipated to spark long-distance healthcare, we find that teleconsultations are less likely as regions become farther apart. We examine two plausible mechanisms that may contribute to the observed geography friction: (1) low information bandwidth of a teleconsultation channel, and (2) financial constraint of patients in underserved areas. Supplementary analyses using granular data (fees, physician ranks, and illness types) provide corroborating evidence to the proposed mechanisms.

This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overall aim of this practical guidance is to facilitate greater use and consistency in the use of teleconsultations, whilst adhering to quality standards and recognizing that the set up and delivery of such services must be adapted to suit particular contexts, health needs and priorities. The specific objectives are to guide health care professional on how to plan, conduct and follow up a teleconsultation with children, adolescents and their families. The guidance is designed to be used by a wide range of HCPs (e.g., doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals) who work with infants, children and adolescents across a range of different settings (e.g., community, primary and tertiary care settings).The guidance is intended to be relevant in countries where teleconsultations are already widely used as well as in countries that are strengthening their teleconsultation systems. It is also hoped that the guidance will be of interest to practitioners working in developing health systems by signaling some of the opportunities and challenges of teleconsultations.

Book excerpt: The use of problem-solving consultation in schools has been found to be an effective method of service delivery to support a large number of teachers struggling to address student social-emotional behavioral (SEB) concerns. Despite its benefits, a number of barriers (e.g., lack of time, limited access to trained professionals) restrict the use of consultation within schools, especially in rural settings. Currently, schools psychologists in rural settings are often required to serve multiple schools, limiting the amount of individualized services that can be provided. Rural schools also struggle to access expert consultants, as these individuals are often located in urban settings. This study examines the outcomes of teleconsultation designed to improve behavior support to students living in rural communities. Teleconsultation is defined as a method of supporting consultation services via a videoconferencing format. Teleconsultation has the potential to increase access to consultation services and evidence-based interventions in the educational setting. The present study examined the consultation process for six elementary school teachers within rural schools, as they collaborated with a consultant over videoconferencing to address the disruptive behavior concerns of a student in their classroom. Participating teachers were asked to complete the problem-solving consultation process and implement a behavior support plan developed through the consultation process for a student that engaged in disruptive classroom behaviors. Student outcomes were monitored to examine the effectiveness of the developed plans. Results indicate that (a) student disruptive behaviors improved through the implementation of a behavior support plan developed through teleconsultation, (b) teachers found the teleconsultation experience acceptable and feasible, (c) teachers found the consultant effective through teleconsultation, and (d) teachers found the behavior support plans developed through consultation moderately to highly effective and acceptable. As the demands placed on psychologists and the quality of videoconferencing continue to increase, teleconsultation is becoming a viable option for service delivery within the rural school setting.

Book excerpt: As the demands of modern life begin to affect the availability of convenient GP appointments, there is a need to move away from some of the rigid and traditional opening hours of Primary Care Surgeries. The Out Of Hours service has therefore become a significant player in the quest to improve patents' access to primary care services.The author outlines the various ways of achieving patient contact, discusses the systems already in place for dealing with patient care outside the normal working hours of Primary Care Doctors and challenges all clinicians to work towards the promotion of patient safety.Where possible, he has deliberately avoided medical jargon so that the layperson can have direct access to the information.

Download or read book Global Telehealth written by Anthony C. Smith and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Telehealth -- the delivery of health services and clinical information from a distance -- has reached new levels with the communication revolution of the last decade: consumer videoconferencing, mobile devices, high bandwidth infrastructure and close range wireless sensor networks have made many advances possible in the field. New specialized clinical applications and markets have also emerged. These include tele-homecare, tele-rehabilitation and tele-emergency, surveillance and disaster response, while ideas which once seemed futuristic, such as tele-procedures and tele-surgery, are now seen as being within the realms of possibility. This book contains selected papers from the 2010 Global Telehealth conference, hosted by the Australasian Telehealth Society. They cover a broad spectrum, from successfully completed projects to work in progress. The papers chosen for publication are all deemed to have lasting value, and to capture the international diversity and scope of contemporary telehealth developments. Two aspects which remain elusive in advancing telehealth deployment, both in developed countries and the developing world, are widely accepted evidence for the clinical and economic benefits of telehealth and the development of policy and business modeling drivers which will speed their adoption. The studies presented here exemplify precisely the type of work required to overcome these obstacles and the book will be of interest to all those involved in advancing the efficiency and effectiveness of healthcare throughout the world.
