利用低带宽因特网视频会议为8家社区医院提供身体康复咨询服务。视频会议和文件传输使用PC和调制解调器。一条单独的电话线用于语音。在21个月中，完成了47次身体康复咨询，涉及交流障碍、足部护理、步态问题、矫形、假肢、手臂无力和轮椅处方。磋商时间约为40分钟。47名临床医生完成了问卷调查。虽然超过80%的问卷答复支持远程医疗方法，但远程临床医生的满意度高于专家。24人完成了客户问卷调查（回复率为51%）。所有客户都对远程咨询感到满意并有信心。
Low-bandwidth, Internet-based videoconferencing was used to provide physical rehabilitation consultation services for eight community hospitals. Videoconferencing and file transmission used a PC and modem. A separate telephone line was used for voice. Over 21 months, 47 physical rehabilitation consultations were completed for communication disorders, foot care, gait problems, orthotics, prosthetics, arm weakness and wheelchair prescription. Consultations were approximately 40 min long. Clinician questionnaires were completed by 47 individuals. While more than 80% of the questionnaire responses supported the telemedicine approach, remote clinicians rated their satisfaction higher than did the specialists. Client questionnaires were completed by 24 individuals (a response rate of 51%). All clients were comfortable with and had confidence in the teleconsultations.
