TeleMedicine & E-Health
TeleMedicine & E-Health offer indispensable tools for home health care, remote patient monitoring, disease management, and advances in technology for medical centres, practitioners, and hospitals not only for rural health and battlefield care, but also for nursing home, assisted living facilities, maritime and aviation settings. E-health includes the use of the internet or other electronic media. Telemedicine is the use of advanced telecommunication and information technologies in order to provide clinical health care at a distance. It helps to 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.
