University of Arizona: The Arizona Telemedicine
Program is a large, multidisciplinary, university based program that
provides telemedicine services, distance learning, informatics training
and telemedicine technology assessment capabilities to communities throughout
Arizona. As an initiative of this program, the department has been using
TeleVital technology at the Lowell Elementary School of Phoenix. During
the year 2002 students were regularly screened for asthma with spirometry
and oximetry tests were performed on students exhibiting signs or symptoms
of asthma. These test results were stored in a secure server allowing medical
specialists throughout Arizona to access and respond to specific cases. |
