Objectives : What does the publicly available literature tell us about the attitudes of health care staff to the development of information technology in practice, including the factors which influence them and the factors which may be used to change these attitudes? Methods : Twelve databases were searched for literature published between 2000 and 2005 that identified research related to information technology (IT), health professionals and attitude. English language studies were included which described primary research relating to the attitudes of one or more health care staff groups towards IT. Letters, personal viewpoints, reflections and opinion pieces were not included. Results : Complex factors contribute to the formation of attitudes towards IT. Many of the issues identified were around the flexibility of the systems and whether they were 'fit for purpose', along with the confidence and experience of the IT users. The literature suggests that attitudes of practitioners are a significant factor in the acceptance and efficiency of use of IT in practice. The literature also suggested that education and training was a factor for encouraging the use of IT systems. Conclusions : A range of key issues, such as the need for flexibility and usability, appropriate education and training and the need for the software to be 'fit for purpose', showed that organizations need to plan carefully when proposing the introduction of IT-based systems into work practices. The studies reviewed did suggest that attitudes of health care professionals can be a significant factor in the acceptance and efficiency of use of IT in practice. Further qualitative and quantitative research is needed into the approaches that have most effect on the attitudes of health care staff towards IT.

“…A survey conducted by Yousem and Beauchamp (2000) looked at three key issues clinicians hoped PACS would help improve upon: the length of time between ordering the exam and receiving the results, lost films, and lack of previous films for comparison. Through the alleviation of these problems, clinicians resoundingly hope to greatly improve the care to the patient.…”

“…There are also security issues for physicians in terms of Federal patient health care privacy laws such as Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act(HIPAA) over such a network, many of which are encrypted and secure using secure socket layer (SSL) or https encrypted services. 124,125 Another consideration for telestroke and teleneurology is neuroimaging access, in particular the remote viewing of simple neuro- and more advanced neurovascular imaging of such patients. Some of these companies offer integrated picture archiving and communication system (PACS) at an incremental fee, 125 while other hospitals are able to grant similar remote (once credentialed) access to imaging similar to that provided to their local physicians, 126 which can then be accessed separately from the robotic or audiovisual telestroke or teleneurology encounter.…”

The Neurohospitalist

Despite the growing demand for emergency neurological evaluations and neurohospitalists, the supply of neurologists remains relatively fixed over time. Telemedicine is a unique tool that has the ability to put a medical specialist like a neurologist in 2 places in a relatively short period of time, expanding expertise in many rural and in some underserved urban facilities that would ordinarily be devoid of such expertise. Teleneurology is a branch of telemedicine that consults and practices through remote neurological evaluation. Telestroke is defined as remote stroke evaluation. The demand for timely neurological evaluation, especially acute stroke evaluation and treatment with intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (IV rtPA), continues to fuel the growth of neurohospitalists, telestroke, and teleneurology services. Remote, rural, or underserved urban emergency departments and hospitals which are unable to successfully recruit a neurologist or neurohospitalist to provide this service are uniquely suited to a teleneurology option. The number of private practices and academic centers providing telestroke services has grown significantly in the past decade with continued growth expected. We describe the benefits and drawbacks of teleneurology/telestroke, as well as other practical aspects for the teleneurohospitalist.
