Overview of teleNeurology Services and Solutions
Telestroke And Emergency Neurology
Our emergency teleNeurology service covers all neurological emergencies occurring in any location in the hospital, including acute stroke. While stroke may be the most familiar reason for emergency teleNeurology, our neurologists are deeply experienced in handling all varieties of neurologic issues, both urgent and non-urgent. We provide real-time access and rapid response from an experienced and board-certified neurologist.
Inpatient Neurology
Our inpatient teleNeurology service is focused on admitted patients in the hospital setting. These cases are typically more clinically complex. Consult requests may be initiated 24/7. If requested before noon, the consult is scheduled for the same day before 5pm; otherwise it is scheduled by noon on the following day. Examples of inpatient teleNeurology consultations:
- TIA/Stroke follow up
- Vertigo/gait and balance issues
- Management of seizures
- Movement disorders such as Parkinson’s/tremors
- Myelopathy
- Neuropathy/neuromuscular consultation
EEG Interpretation
Routine, non-continuous EEG interpretation is available for our clients. Typically, reviews are conducted and a report provided within 24 hours of study transmission.
TeleNeurosurgery Consultation
Access TeleCare teleNeurosurgeons are available for hospitals 24/7/365 days/year. TeleNeurosurgeons provide guidance on management options for procedural interventions and identify patients with conditions requiring outbound transfers while supporting the client hospital to keep non-operative patients whenever medically appropriate and possible.
Our teleNeurosurgery consultation service helps on-site physicians manage possible surgical intervention of patients with spinal injuries, cranial injuries, degenerative spine conditions, hemorrhagic strokes, intracranial or spinal cord masses, and other neurological conditions.
