“…will revolutionize current clinical medical practice, especially for remote or geographically dispersed populations, and will profoundly alter the medical landscape well into the twenty-first century. (Garshnek et al, 1997) This passage illustrates the sea change telemedicine marks in the overall structure and geography of care and hence in the dynamics of medical power. The transformation of communication in health care corresponds with a transformation of the very structure and practice of health care.…”

This article considers how telemedicine emerged as an important new means of constructing new geographic and social relationships in health care. Telemedicine is considered in light of the telecommunications revolution of the 1990s and the potential for expanding health markets during this period. An argument is made that telemedicine is part of an actuarial mode of organizing peoples according to the interests of emerging health care corporations. The techniques of the field are central components of a spatial social ordering of subjects into populations within a newly converged global health network. This article argues that telemedicine is not simply a new approach to delivering health care better, it is a method of tailoring health-care communities to match the demands of a global health economy.

“…The establishment of a telemedicine network with a regional hub has significant policy implications, such as the coordinated selection of communication platforms and information systems, the consolidated management of resources in a target area, and the facilitation of NIMS (National Incident Management System)-compliant centralized command and control centers to direct the healthcare response for disasters. However, while a regional telemedicine hub with an extended network has the potential to alleviate multiple problems during disaster response, there is no consensus about how to quantify the health-related benefit associated with the proposed organization model [ 8 ]. In this paper, we describe a comprehensive quantitative analysis that assesses the benefits of the telemedicine hub concept in emergency response for a hypothetical earthquake scenario.…”

Implementing Telemedicine in Medical Emergency Response: Concept of Operation for a Regional Telemedicine Hub

et al. 2010

A regional telemedicine hub, providing linkage of a telemedicine command center with an extended network of clinical experts in the setting of a natural or intentional disaster, may facilitate future disaster response and improve patient outcomes. However, the health benefits derived from the use of telemedicine in disaster response have not been quantitatively analyzed. In this paper, we present a general model of the application of telemedicine to disaster response and evaluate a concept of operations for a regional telemedicine hub, which would create distributed surge capacity using regional telemedicine networks connecting available healthcare and telemedicine infrastructures to external expertise. Specifically, we investigate (1) the scope of potential use of telemedicine in disaster response; (2) the operational characteristics of a regional telemedicine hub using a new discrete-event simulation model of an earthquake scenario; and (3) the benefit that the affected population may gain from a coordinated regional telemedicine network.

El propósito de este articulo es determinar cuáles factores influyen en la alteración de algunas medidas fisiológicas y mentales específicas presentadas en los pilotos durante el vuelo y cómo éstas intervienen en su comportamiento, teniendo en cuenta la variable operativa de carga de trabajo, importante en los protocolos de investigación de la aviación. Para estudiar esta variable a fondo tanto en la aviación militar y la comercial es necesario revisar, comparar y contrastar diferentes escenarios, condiciones, aeronaves e individuos, que permitan diferenciar cómo se experimentan estos cambios que a corto, mediano y largo plazo, intervienen en el estado de salud del individuo, llevando en ocasiones a consecuencias nefastas, surgiendo de esta manera cada vez más la necesidad de controlar estas medidas, transmitiéndolas en lo posible en tiempo real para su posterior monitoreo y análisis por parte del especialista, proporcionando de esta forma el incremento en el control y prevención de accidentes aéreos.
