*Telemedicine Partnership lets Local Shriners Patients Skip the Road Trip*

For children needing follow-up medical care, traveling hours for a 10-minute
health check-up is often impractical.  That is why the Cincinnati's Shriners
Hospital for Children and the University of Southern Indiana (USI) have
joined together to offer telemedicine services for children in the tri-state
area.

According to the article, "the Shriners purchased telemedicine technology
that resides at USI, enabling Shriners patients to receive follow-up care
from their physicians without the inconvenience of travel."

Diabetes Diary More Flexible Than Carbohydrate Counting
*

The January 2010 edition of Diabetes Carenew, found that "a new telemedicine
system is as effective and more flexible than standard carbohydrate counting
in treating adults with type 1 diabetes."

The study randomly assigned 130 adults living with type 1 diabetes to use
the Diabetes Interactive Diary (DID) or to standard education (carbohydrate
counting).  The research found that those using DID, "significantly improved
treatment satisfaction and several quality-of-life dimensions."
