TELEHEALTH
Using state-of-the-art telehealth technology , UAB eMedicine interacts directly with patients and works with county health departments , hospitals , and medical centers throughout Alabama to provide health care services that might otherwise be unavailable locally . Using telehealth technology , including secure videoconferencing and Bluetooth-enabled stethoscopes , UAB Medicine providers can perform full physical exams and manage complex medical conditions from a distance .
UAB offers a remote patient monitoring program for patients with congestive heart failure , with the goal of improving patient care and proactively reducing readmissions . Through this program , identified patients are sent home with a blood pressure cuff and weight scale that transmit real-time data to a nurse practitioner . If concerning values are transmitted , the patient is called , and care is coordinated by the patient ’ s provider . |
