A multi-institutional study led by researchers at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) found that telemedicine is becoming increasingly common for problem-based primary care, particularly for children with endocrine or behavioral health issues where chronic needs are significant.

Learn why many remote patient monitoring (RPM) programs fail to scale and how standardized health data, interoperability, and a unified integration layer help healthcare organizations reduce engineering complexity and improve clinical outcomes.

IntroductionChronic diseases, particularly heart failure (HF), impose a substantial clinical and socioeconomic burden worldwide. AI-based telemonitoring holds significant promise for improving chronic disease management through continuous monitoring and early detection of deterioration. However, translation into routine clinical practice remains limited due to challenges regarding data quality, t…

We just made BioMedixAI launch-ready: a single platform covering doctors, hospitals, diagnostics, pharmacies, ambulance, OT, ICU/CCU/NICU, blood bank, telemedicine, teleradiology, HR, accounting and more — designed to run in 140 countries at once. That sentence hides a lot of hard architecture decisions. A few we made early: Shared-schema multi-tenancy scoped by facilityId on every query — one co…

For people who see a neurology clinician for the first time, a new study has found that being seen virtually vs. in-person made no difference in how soon they needed more care.

Heart failure telemedicine doesn’t seem to be lining up evidence-based care after a recent Stanford Medicine analysis revealed that remotely-managed HF patients received less diagnostic testing and saw serious dips in guideline-directed medical therapy. With the rising popularity of remote patient management in cardiology, Stanford researchers decided to explore telemedicine’s HF impact by tracki…

Picture yourself on a future mission to Mars. You’re floating in zero gravity, tools strapped to your suit, when a crewmate slices open their arm while repairing equipment. On Earth, you’d dial 911. In orbit, you’d radio Houston. But on Mars, help is millions of miles away. The signal takes more than 20 minutes to travel one way, and then another 20 minutes for Mission Control to respond. Nearly …

Reading Time: 5 minutes Hi, my name is Avril Mc Tague. I am undertaking a Ph.D. at Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland as part of the Multidisciplinary Innovation and Research Advancing Neurological care in a Digital Age (MIRANDA) doctoral award programme. This is funded by the Health Research Board in Ireland. I was one of five symposium communication ambassadors at last year’s international sympos…

Providing healthcare in remote or rural areas is challenging, particularly specialized medicine and surgical procedures. Patients may need to travel long distances just to get to medical facilities and to communicate with caregivers. They may not arrive in time to receive essential information before their medical appointments and may have to return home before they can receive crucial follow-up …
