Researchers at UCLA have developed an information technology system that enables physicians to merge real-time patient data flow with teleconsultation. This teleconsulting system allows physicians to provide "on-demand" patient care over the phone, from locations both internal and external to the primary healthcare facility.

Researchers at UCLA have developed a comprehensive teleconsultation system that enables physicians secure access to patient data by utilizing cutting edge technology and a multitasking operating system. The system supports both voice and data simultaneously, and from the first time a patient registers at a facility to post-care questions after release, it captures and organizes patient data. The system continuously compiles and instantaneously broadcasts secure and customizable records containing patient identity, health care summary, lab results, images, procedures and diagnoses to the attending physician's device. This teleconsulting system allows for thorough and timely care and increased patient satisfaction. MORE[2007-479]
