Quality Of Medical Care

Telemedicine allows healthcare professionals to assess, diagnose and treat patients remotely using information and telecommunications technologies. Telemedicine is an evolutionary discovery that is increasingly becoming an important part of medical science and practice. Objectives: To study and analyze the opinion of physician assistants for telemedicine as a predictor for overcoming the barrier in the process of treatment of elderly people living in small and remote settlements. Methods: We conducted a survey of the opinion of 80 physician assistants on telemedicine as a predictor for overcoming barriers in the treatment of elderly and senile people living in small and remote settlements. Results: According to the analysis of the data on the benefits of the introduction of telemedicine and because it is a predictor for overcoming the barrier in the treatment of the elderly and elderly, the following was found: Medical professionals providing medical care to geriatric patients face a number of challenges that require a timely and adequate response, and telemedicine is a predictor of overcoming the barrier in the process of their treatment. In hard-to-reach and remote settlements, there is often a lack of general practitioners, enough outpatient clinics and places to perform activities for the treatment of geriatric patients. In these cases, the application of telemedicine would be adequate. This will increase the possibility of access to adequate medical care. Patients will receive precise and clear instructions. This will reduce the need for transportation or time for patients to access hospitals. Conclusion: The study allows us to draw the following inferences: Telemedicine is an opportunity to improve and enhance the professional activity of physician assistants working with geriatric patients and the implementation of telemedicine will increase the quality of medical care and health care for the elderly population in remote areas and small settlements.

Quality Of Medical Care

BACKGROUND Diabetes Mellitus is a worldwide health problem and the leading cause of premature death with increasing prevalence over time. Usually, along with it, Hypertension presents and acts as another risk factor that increases mortality risk. Both diseases impact the country's health while also producing an economic burden for society, causing billions of dollars to be invested in their management. OBJECTIVE The present study evaluated the quality of medical care for patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension (HBP), and both pathologies (DM+HBP) within a public health system in Mexico, according to the official Mexican standard for each pathology. METHODS 45,498 patients were included from 2012 to 2015. All information was taken from the electronic medical records database, exported as anonymized data for research purposes. Each patient record was compared against the standard to test the quality of medical care. RESULTS Glycemia with hypertension goals reached 29.6% in DM+HBP, 48.6% in DM, and 53.2% in HBP. The goals of serum lipids were reached by 3% in DM+HBP, 5% in DM, and 0.2% in HBP. Glycemia, hypertension, and LDL cholesterol reached 0.04%. 15% of patients had an undiagnosed disease of diabetes or hypertension. Clinical follow-up examinations reached 20% for foot examination and clinical eye examination in the whole population. Specialty referral reached 1% in angiology or cardiology in the whole population. CONCLUSIONS Goals for glycemic and hypertension reached 50% in the overall population, while serum lipids, clinical follow-up examinations, and referral to a specialist were deficient. Patients who had both diseases had more consultations, better control for hypertension and lipids, but inferior glycemic control. Overall, quality care for DM and/or HBP has not been met according to the standards. While patients with DM and HBP do not have a current standard to evaluate their own needs.
