  • Title: Different systems and formats for tele-ICU coverage: designing a tele-ICU system to optimize functionality and investment.
    Author: Reynolds HN, Bander J, McCarthy M.
    Journal: Crit Care Nurs Q; 2012; 35(4):364-77. PubMed ID: 22948371.
    Abstract:
    Technology always changes, yet change or evolution within the tele-ICU has been slow. In developing a modern telemedicine system to manage acute illness, there are several concepts the developer/administrator should consider to include "scalability," centralized/decentralized systems, open/closed architecture, inclusivity of the medical community, mobile technology, price set, and governmental regulation. The intent of this manuscript is to apply these concepts to current tele-ICU technology, explain the concepts in some depth, and finally, to speculate as to how the future tele-ICU might look.
