Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Computer Science
  • Communication Technology

Background:

  • Data conferencing facilitates real-time communication and simultaneous information sharing.
  • The T.120 standard underpins multipoint data sharing, interoperability, and scalability.
  • Evolution of data conferencing is linked to network bandwidth and internet connectivity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the literature on data-conferencing applications in healthcare.
  • To identify the types and trends of data-conferencing applications used in health care.
  • To assess the readiness of data conferencing for widespread healthcare implementation.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature review of data-conferencing in healthcare.
  • Analysis of 25 identified articles, with 10 providing detailed application information.
  • Categorization of applications including application sharing, whiteboards, chat, and screen sharing.

Main Results:

  • Eight articles focused on application sharing, seven on whiteboards, two on chat, and one on screen sharing.
  • Pre-2000 articles focused on low-bandwidth tools like NetMeeting and Intel ProShare.
  • Post-2000 saw a shift towards Web-based multimedia data conferencing with high-speed internet.

Conclusions:

  • Data conferencing offers significant potential benefits for healthcare communication and collaboration.
  • Current research and evaluation are insufficient for widespread adoption in healthcare settings.
  • Further investigation is necessary to fully realize and implement data conferencing in health care.
