Download or read book Telehealth written by Chase Jennings and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronic pain is a national public health problem. Poor availability of treatment leads to increased costs, unnecessary suffering for patients, and a significant economic burden to society. The experience of chronic pain is multifaceted; while it is a physical phenomenon, it is often accompanied by complex psychosocial effects. Chronic pain is better understood through the biopsychosocial model. This biopsychosocial model highlights physiological, psychological, and social impacts and how they can prolong or exacerbate the pain experience. Effective treatment of this complex condition requires a management and treatment strategy that covers the full scope of the disease experience. Multidisciplinary pain management is an evidence-based, holistic approach to treating chronic pain that addresses the complexity of the condition by assembling a multidisciplinary team of medical experts to develop a thorough treatment strategy for the patient and treat pain through the lens of the biopsychosocial model. Compared to conventional methods of managing chronic pain, which ignore the psychosocial aspects of chronic pain and place more emphasis on its physical component, this treatment is more efficient and less expensive. The best ethical course of treatment for those with chronic pain is a multidisciplinary one that addresses all facets of the pain experience. Unfortunately, there is a widespread lack of access to this care due to a lack of availability, funding, and awareness of this treatment style. Today, telehealth and internet-based platforms provide new ways for patients to access outpatient treatment and other forms of healthcare remotely. This kind of access can be a cost-effective, accessible, and convenient way for patients to engage with multidisciplinary pain management and provides a solution to the challenges of delivering multidisciplinary pain management.

Download or read book Research Anthology on Telemedicine Efficacy Adoption and Impact on Healthcare Delivery written by Management Association, Information Resources and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 689 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Telemedicine, which involves electronic communications and software, provides the same clinical services to patients without the requirement of an in-person visit. Essentially, this is considered remote healthcare. Though telemedicine is not a new practice, it has become an increasingly popular form of healthcare delivery due to current events, including the COVID-19 pandemic. Not only are visits being moved onto virtual platforms, but additional materials and correspondence can remain in the digital sphere. Virtual lab results, digital imaging, medical diagnosis, and video consultations are just a few examples that encompass how telemedicine can be used for increased accessibility in healthcare delivery. With telemedicine being used in both the diagnosis and treatment of patients, technology in healthcare can be implemented at almost any phase of the patient experience. As healthcare delivery follows the digital shift, it is important to understand the technologies, benefits and challenges, and overall impacts of the remote healthcare experience. The Research Anthology on Telemedicine Efficacy, Adoption, and Impact on Healthcare Delivery presents the latest research on best practices for adopting telehealth into medical practices and its efficacy and solutions for the improvement of telemedicine, as well as addresses emerging challenges and opportunities, including issues such as securing patient data and providing healthcare accessibility to rural populations. Covering important themes that include doctor-patient relationships, tele-wound monitoring, and telemedicine regulations, this book is essential for healthcare professionals, doctors, medical students, academic and medical libraries, medical technologists, practitioners, stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and students interested in the emerging technological developments and solutions within the field of telemedicine.
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.
