Diabetes Care and Treatment Project: A Joslin Telemedicine Initiative

Abstract

Most of the proposed studies have cleared local and HSRRB approvals and are in various stages of implementation at participating sites. Those that have yet to be approved are through the planning phase. For completed studies, results have been analyzed and manuscripts are being prepared for submission to academic conferences and peer reviewed journals. The JVN application has been integrated to include both eye care and diabetes care in readiness for integration into AHLTA. Technologically, we have incorporated a new digital video camera for the eye care component of the JVN program; this is currently undergoing clinical validation for diagnostic accuracy for diabetic retinopathy assessment. CDMP development for new modules is being accomplished and we have expanded the patient portal to encompass many more home monitoring devices. CDMP development has also addressed the results of the completed Human Factors Study (Usability Lab).
