Telemedicine for neonatal resuscitation? @jenfang0908 shares the opportunities #HotTopicsNeo2020 #neoEBM
Can technology and telemedicine help close the gap in the mortality disparity for inborn and outborn infants?
Dr. Fang conducted a simulated study where pediatric trainees were assigned to two groups, one with telemedicine support
This simulation study reduced the time to effective ventilation and supported the rationale for a pilot development of a telemedicine program at @MayoClinic that now serves 19 community hospitals, covering 17,000 deliveries per year
Snapshots of a telemedicine consult - opportunities to interact with the bedside team in the delivery room and guide resuscitation by a remote neonatologist
Dr. Fang also highlights the potential for telemedicine to reduce medicolegal liability based on the experience at @MayoClinic
Does telemedicine improve outcomes of newborn resuscitation?

Data suggested that telemedicine improved the quality of neonatal resuscitation, with associated increases in measurement of temperature, blood glucose, and blood gas
