Study characteristics

1Jacobson K, Hooke C. Telehealth videoconferencing for children with hemophilia and their families: a clinical project. J PEDIATR ONCOL NURS 2016; 33(4): 282–8.
Month/yearOctober 2015
CountryUSA
Study designCross-sectional survey
Patient population (n)Severe haemophilia, ages 2–18 (n=12)
Healthcare team population & disciplines (n)HTC staff (n=4): healthcare providers, HTC nurse
Virtual mediumTelephone, videoconferencing, email with photographs
Process of virtual consultation
  • Patient contacts clinic by phone to discuss bleeding with HTC nurse

  • Videoconferencing scheduled if HCP feels visualisation would be helpful

  • Documentation undertaken as a phone message

OutcomesPatients: Easy to access, easy to set up consultation with HCPs, felt that HCPs have a better understanding of bleed using video when compared to phone calls alone, 50% felt more confident caring for child after video conference.HCPs: 75% feel that same information could be achieved with phone call, 50% found telehealth visit to be better than phone call, 50% indifferent to video vs. phone call, 75% believe video consultations saved the need for patients to visit the hospital.
