HEALTH APPLICATIONS OF THE NATIONAL INFORMATION

这项研究提案旨在证明SECURE 公共电信网络上的临床远程医疗，并显示 它被采纳为整体医疗保健计划的组成部分可能会导致 在节省成本和改善农村地区获得优质医疗保健方面 人口。 将开发三个远程医疗应用程序，以满足 重症监护提供者、中层提供者和家庭护理病人。这个 应用程序将利用强大的加密和身份验证设施， 使授权用户能够安全地访问电子医疗 记录和患者监护仪数据，并与协作进行磋商 医疗保健提供者在治疗病人方面的作用。 这些应用程序将在以下诊所和医院进行现场试验 与医疗保健组织合作。项目的评估阶段 包括评估这些远程医疗应用程序对 提供医疗保健，以及评估措施，以确保 患者电子信息的安全性和完整性。 我们相信，当我们的评价努力广泛传播时， 将使医疗保健行业将远程医疗作为 一个整体的医疗体系。

This research proposal aims to demonstrate the viability of secure clinical telemedicine on public telecommunication networks and show that its adoption as an integral part of an overall healthcare plan can result in cost savings and improved access to quality healthcare for rural populations. Three telemedicine applications will be developed to meet the needs of intensive care providers, mid-level providers and homecare patients. The applications will utilize strong encryption and authentication facilities, enabling authorized users to have secure access to electronic medical records and patient monitor data, and to confer with collaborating healthcare providers in the treatment of patients. These applications will undergo field trials at clinics and hospitals of partnering healthcare organizations. The assessment phase of the project includes evaluating the impact of these telemedicine applications on the delivery of healthcare, as well as evaluating measures to ensure the security and integrity of electronic patient information. We believe the results of our evaluation effort when widely disseminated will enable the healthcare industry embrace telemedicine as a key part of an overall healthcare system.
