Poison management through telemedicine in rural area
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Pharmacology & Pharmacotherapeutics (IJRPP) - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Telemedicine is the use of telecommunication and information technologies in order to provide clinical health care at a distance. It helps eliminate distance barriers and can improve access to medical services that would often not be consistently available in distant rural communities. It is also used to save lives in critical care and emergency situations. Although there were distant precursors to telemedicine, it is essentially a product of 20th century telecommunication and information technologies. These technologies permit communications between patient and medical staff with both convenience and fidelity, as well as the transmission of medical, imaging and health informatics data from one site to another. Early forms of telemedicine achieved with telephone and radio have been supplemented with video telephony, advanced diagnostic methods supported by distributed client/server applications, and additionally with telemedical devices to support in-home care delivery systems. These article mainly focus on use of telemedicine in rural areas for “PESTICIDES POISONING” OR “SNAKE POISONING”.“Here we have an extraordinarily cost effective, rapidly responsive medical service that offers significant benefits to large numbers of patients”. This is an initiative of telemedicine to device a sophisticated “POISON INFORMATION CENTRE” especially in RURAL areas and deliver treatment as soon as possible.
