Abstract

Systems and methods for telehealth delivery and analysis are disclosed. According to an aspect, a method includes receiving medical data associated with a patient. Further, the method includes determining consultation communication data associated with one or more communications between a healthcare professional and the patient. The method also includes generating statistical analysis data based on the medical data and the consultation communication data.

Claims

1. A method comprising:

at a processor and memory;

receiving medical data associated with a patient;

determining consultation communication data associated with one or more communications between a healthcare professional and the patient; and

generating statistical analysis data based on the medical data and the consultation communication data.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein receiving medical data comprises receiving medical data of the patient logged subsequent to the patient being discharged from a medical facility.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein receiving medical data comprises receiving data indicating a presence of one of a medical condition, diabetes, hypertension, prior stroke, atrial fibrillation, and vascular disease.

4. The method of claim 2, wherein receiving medical data comprises receiving one of an age, diagnosis, time of arrival from symptom onset, neurological examination finding, r-tPA contraindication, and absence of vascular risk factors of the patient.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein determining consultation communication data comprises one of a time length of consultation and a consultation response time.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein generating statistical analysis data comprises determining a relation between the medical data and the consultation communication data.

7. A system comprising:

at least a processor and memory configured to;

receive medical data associated with a patient;

determine consultation communication data associated with one or more communications between a healthcare professional and the patient; and

generate statistical analysis data based on the medical data and the consultation communication data.

8. The system of claim 7, wherein the at least a processor and memory are configured to receive medical data of the patient logged subsequent to the patient being discharged from a medical facility.

9. The system of claim 8, wherein the at least a processor and memory are configured to receive data indicating a presence of one of a medical condition, diabetes, hypertension, prior stroke, atrial fibrillation, and vascular disease.

10. The system of claim 8, wherein the at least a processor and memory are configured to receive one of an age, diagnosis, time of arrival from symptom onset, neurological examination finding, r-tPA contraindication, and absence of vascular risk factors of the patient.

11. The system of claim 7, wherein the at least a processor and memory are configured to determine one of a time length of consultation and a consultation response time.

12. The system of claim 7, wherein the at least a processor and memory are configured to determine a relation between the medical data and the consultation communication data.

13. A computer program product for telehealth delivery and analysis, said computer program product comprising:

a computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, the computer readable program code comprising;

computer readable program code configured to receive medical data associated with a patient;

computer readable program code configured to determine consultation communication data associated with one or more communications between a healthcare professional and the patient; and

computer readable program code configured to generate statistical analysis data based on the medical data and the consultation communication data.

14. The computer program product of claim 13, further comprising computer readable program code configured to receive medical data of the patient logged subsequent to the patient being discharged from a medical facility.

15. The computer program product of claim 14, wherein the medical data indicates a presence of one of a medical condition, diabetes, hypertension, prior stroke, atrial fibrillation, and vascular disease.

16. The computer program product of claim 14, wherein the medical data indicates one of an age, diagnosis, time of arrival from symptom onset, neurological examination finding, r-tPA contraindication, and absence of vascular risk factors of the patient.

17. The computer program product of claim 13, wherein the consultation communication data comprises one of a time length of consultation and a consultation response time.

18. The computer program product of claim 13, computer program product determine a relation between the medical data and the consultation communication data.
