Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed a secure IT consultation system. When doctors at home-care clinics and rural medical institutions have trouble making diagnoses and treatment, they can consult female doctors (dermatologist, ophthalmologist and pediatrician) on maternal leave via this system which includes medical histories and photographs. There were 40 consultations with the dermatologist, 3 consultations with the ophthalmologist and 2 consultations with the pediatrician. According to the questionnaire, home-care/rural doctors, and female doctors all reported a high level of satisfaction. The result of interviews indicated that this system may improve the diagnostic abilities of homecare and rural doctor, and also suggested that it may be a useful educational tool for the maintenance and advancement of medical abilities of young female doctors on maternal leave, as well as reinstatement support.
