Telehealth interactions today help to insure that professionals can:
replicate usual clinical interactions in all specialties across a distance
<Telehealth interactions today have helped to ensure that
professionals can replicate the usual clinical interactions in all
specialties across a distance.>
replace face- to- face clinical interactions <While telehealth can
imitate face-to-face interaction with the patient and even reduce the
need for such interactions, it cannot replace them.>
greatly reduce health care costs <While telehealth can imitate face-to-
face interaction and thus reduce some health care costs, it is not a
guarantee of greatly reducing costs for all patients.>
None of the above. <Telehealth allows professionals to imitate face-
to-face contact with patients.>
Answer: A
A signaling device worn as a pendant to provide access to help is
a_________________
personal emergency response system <Personal emergency
response systems are signaling devices worn as a pendant or
otherwise made easily accessible to patients to ensure their safety
and to enable them to quickly access emergency care when
needed.>
sensor and activity monitoring system <Sensor and activity-
monitoring systems can track activities of daily living of seniors
and other at-risk individuals in their place of residence as opposed
to a device that can signal an emergency situation.>
videophone <A videophone is a device used by patients for routine
home visits as opposed to a device that can signal an emergency
situation.>
peripheral biometric device <As opposed to a worn device,
, peripheral biometric devices consist of fully integrated systems,
such as a vital signs monitor, that can plug directly into the
household telephone jack to send data to a central server location.>
Answer A
Example(s) of nonclinical use(s) of telehealth is/are:
Grand rounds <This is one example of a nonclinical use of
telehealth.>
Administrative supervision <This is one example of a nonclinical
use of telehealth.>
Research data collection <This is one example of a nonclinical use
of telehealth.>
All of the above <Grand rounds, administrative supervision, and
research data collection are all examples of a nonclinical use of
telehealth.>
Answer: D
Clinical data captured electronically and transmitted to another location
where it is interpreted by another clinician is know as:
Interactive telehealth <With interactive telehealth a
telecommunications link between the involved parties allows a live
interaction to take place as opposed to capturing and then
transmitting clinical data.>
Remote monitoring <Either in real time or as a stored and then
released transmission, remote monitoring devices capture and
transmit biometric data.>
Store and forward telehealth <With store-and-forward telehealth,
digital images, video, audio, and clinical data are captured and
stored on the client computer or device; then, the data are
transmitted to a specialist or clinician at another location, where
they are studied by the relevant specialist or clinician.>
Telephony <As opposed to capturing and transmitting data,
