A hybrid traditional and tele-intensivist model is a model of care using traditional intensivist care during the day and remote presence technology after-hours (5pm-7am). The remote presence physician's activities mimic that of an in-house intensivist. They review patient treatment plans, interact with nurses, respiratory therapists, and other caregivers, as well as discuss the patient's status with family members. These physicians evaluate new admissions to the ICU and can be available to participate in rapid response alerts and inpatient deteriorations. Because the remote presence device is guided by many of the same physicians present in-house during a patient's stay, continuity is improved and the patient/family-physician relationships are enhanced.
While some technical limitations exist, this hybrid model of care increased physician presence and accessibility, benefitting patients, their families and caregivers. The improved physician presence allowed the community hospitals to care for higher acuity patients, smoother shift transitions and enhanced communication between caregivers.
Attendees will understand this hybrid traditional and tele-intensivist model of care, the clinical and financial outcomes perceived to be associated with the hybrid traditional and tele-intensivist model of care, and the patient and staff perception and satisfaction with a hybrid traditional and tele-intensivist model of care.
