PURPOSE Telehealth is a care delivery model that promises to increase the flexibility and reach of health services. Our objective is to describe patient experiences with video visits performed with their established primary care clinicians. METHODSWe constructed semistructured, in-depth qualitative interviews with adult patients following video visits with their primary care clinicians at a single academic medical center. Data were analyzed with a content analysis approach. RESULTS:Of 32 eligible patients, 19 were successfully interviewed. All patients reported overall satisfaction with video visits, with the majority interested in continuing to use video visits as an alternative to in-person visits. The primary benefits cited were convenience and decreased costs. Some patients felt more comfortable with video visits than office visits and expressed a preference for receiving future serious news via video visit, because they could be in their own supportive environment. Primary concerns with video visits were privacy, including the potential for work colleagues to overhear conversations, and questions about the ability of the clinician to perform an adequate physical examination.CONCLUSIONS Primary care video visits are acceptable in a variety of situations. Patients identified convenience, efficiency, communication, privacy, and comfort as domains that are potentially important to consider when assessing video visits vs in-person encounters. Future studies should explore which patients and conditions are best suited for video visits. INTRODUCTIONT elemedicine, or telehealth, includes telecommunication via a variety of platforms designed to enhance patient-centered health care.1-3 Telehealth in its many forms offers conveniences including increased care accessibility, decreased transportation barriers, and patient empowerment. [4][5][6][7][8] Studies of video visits have demonstrated these benefits in specialty settings including wound care, prenatal genetic screening, family planning, cardiovascular care, and home care. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15] One study of patient experiences with video visits in rural areas found that they were associated with decreased travel costs and lost time/wages, increased access to social support, and better ability to tailor care delivery to patient and family needs. 16Because of these benefits, video visits are being adopted in a variety of settings. Uptake in the United States has occurred most rapidly where reimbursement is favorable. Medicare reimburses for video visits in health professional shortage areas and for specific approved services.17 As a result, much knowledge about patient experiences with video visits is limited to specific disease-related applications and to use in rural settings. [18][19][20] Video visits are increasingly used in other settings, including primary care, but there are limited data on patient experiences with primary care video visits. One study tested video visits with patients communicating via webcam with their primary care physician w...

Ultrasonic Array Doppler Sensing for Human Movement Classification

et al. 2014

Abstract-Classification of human movements is an important problem in healthcare and well-being applications. An ultrasonic array Doppler sensing method is proposed for classifying movements from a given set. The proposed method uses velocity and angular information derived from Doppler frequencies and direction-of-arrival (DoA) by processing the signals at the receiver sensor array. Doppler frequency estimation is done by obtaining an initial estimate based on the Fourier transform in conjunction with a predictive tracker. A Root-MUSIC algorithm is used at the estimated Doppler frequencies to obtain DoA corresponding to the dominating moving object. Using speed, direction, and angle as features, a Bayesian classifier is employed to distinguish between a set of movements. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated using an analytical model of arm movements and also using experimental data sets. The proposed ultrasonic Doppler array sensor and processing methods provide a new, compact solution to human arm movement classification.
