Integrated Healthcare System01:20

Integrated Healthcare System

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...
Tertiary Healthcare System01:21

Tertiary Healthcare System

Specialized care provided over an extended period is called tertiary care. Usually, a primary or secondary care physician will refer a patient to tertiary care. A patient's maximum physical and mental function is restored in tertiary care, which is caused due to the impact of a chronic illness or condition. Tertiary care aims to achieve the highest level of functioning possible while managing chronic illness. For example, a patient who falls and fractures their hip will need secondary care to...

Nursing Clinical Information System01:27

Nursing Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS)
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:
Secondary Healthcare System01:11

Secondary Healthcare System

Secondary healthcare is offered by a specialist, generally in hospitals or clinics for patients referred by primary healthcare providers. It occurs when a person has an illness or injury that requires specific medical care. Secondary care is often referred to as acute care. Secondary care can range from uncomplicated care to repair a minor laceration or treat a strep throat infection to more complicated emergent care, such as treating a head injury sustained in an automobile accident. Whatever...
Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System01:29

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Telecommunication Systems
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • The increasing demand for medical imaging services often outstrips specialist availability.
  • Existing telemedicine solutions can be costly, complex, or pose security risks.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and describe a nearly cost-free telemedicine system for viewing medical images.
  • To assess the system's feasibility for real-time image transmission and security.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized remote desktop technology and the public internet infrastructure.
  • Implemented a system for observing Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine (DICOM) images in real-time.

Main Results:

  • Achieved real-time observation of DICOM images with original spatial resolution and no perceptible delay.
  • The system demonstrated security for personal information and immunity to viral infections.
  • The solution requires no specific licenses, contracts, or initial financial investment.

Conclusions:

  • A low-cost, secure, and efficient telemedicine system for medical image viewing has been successfully constructed.
  • This system offers a practical approach to partially mitigate the shortage of medical specialists.
  • The described telemedicine solution is accessible and requires minimal resources for implementation.
