A teleneurology hospitalist model aims to address the demand for high-quality neurologic acute care and the shortage of neurologists. Here, we review concepts and models of teleneurology services to address access and care gaps in neurology beyond telestroke models. The goal of these emergent teleservices is to empower community hospitals to deliver the highest quality care, while also reducing unnecessary patient transfers to tertiary care hospitals. We highlight the clinical models, patient populations, and innovative approaches of different tele-neurohospitalist services. This includes challenges related to clinical limitations, legal issues, and reimbursement. We highlight specific areas of research that can further clarify and refine the appropriate use, cost-effectiveness, and clinical outcomes of these telemedicine-based care models.
远程神经医院医生模式旨在满足高质量神经急性护理的需求和神经科医生的短缺。在这里,我们回顾了远程神经服务的概念和模式,以解决除远程中风模式之外的神经科的就诊和护理差距。这些新兴远程服务的目标是使社区医院能够提供最高质量的护理,同时减少不必要的患者向三级护理医院的转移。我们强调了不同远程神经科医生服务的临床模式、患者人群和创新方法。这包括与临床限制、法律问题和报销相关的挑战。我们强调了可以进一步阐明和完善这些基于远程医疗的护理模式的适当使用、成本效益和临床结果的具体研究领域。
