STROKE, EMERGENCY
Emergency departments (EDs) with low pediatric patient volumes and limited access to pediatric clinicians are at risk of delivering suboptimal care, including delays in diagnoses, inappropriate therapies, and noncurrent medical management.Telemedicine may be an effective way to provide rural and community EDs with pediatric subspecialty support. More than one-half of EDs in the US use telemedicine for specialty consultations, including mental health, stroke, and other pediatric services.
