RESEARCH POSTER PRESENTATION DESIGN © 2012 www.PosterPresentations.com Teledermatology is use of communica/on technology to connect pa/ents with dermatologists at a distance [1]. Dermatology is well suited for the use of telemedicine in the delivery of care because it is a specialty where visual inspec/on is important. Teledermatology can be applied in different ways. One way is using live interac/ve, real-/me videoconferencing, while another is using a digital image that is stored and forwarded with a clinical history [2,3]. Advantage of store-and-forward method is that it avoids the logis/cal difficulty of seRng up videoconferencing consulta/ons. Technological advances also now allow high resolu/on images to be instantly uploaded. Skin lesions are a common reason for pa/ents to go to the emergency department [9,10]. Teledermatology is a growing prac/ce that can poten/ally revolu/onize the delivery of dermatology services. But, before its widespread applica/on as a health care service tool, it is important to assess its accuracy and reliability through mul/ple evalua/ons. INDRODUCTION OBJECTIVES The Ins/tu/onal Review Board of the University of California Davis approved this study. All Pa/ents gave wriVen informed consent to par/cipate in this research. Subjects were recruited from the Emergency Department at UC Davis Medical Center aZer the trea/ng physician iden/fied them as having a dermatological condi/on. For each case of a skin condi/on, s/ll images of the dermatological condi/on were taken and uploaded on a HIPAA secure cloud based online teledermatology pla]orm (Klara). An emergency medicine physician assessed the subject directly and one board-cer/fied dermatologist assessed the skin condi/on through examina/on of the s/ll images and was blinded to the diagnosis rendered by the non-dermatologist physician un/l a diagnosis was finalized. The concordance of the non-dermatologist physician’s diagnosis and treatment plan was compared to the diagnosis and treatment plan provided by the dermatologist viewing the s/ll images. The images only had accompanying basic history of present illness (without diagnos/c history) and a subject code. The board cer/fied dermatologist par/cipa/ng in image grading did not have access to any informa/on besides the image, subject code, and the history or present illness prior to his diagnosis. MATERIALS & METHODS Altera/ons in management plan: 68% of pa/ents (n=34) had a change in management by teledermatologist RESULTS CONCULSIONS From our teledermatology study looking at pa/ents from the Emergency Department at UC Davis Medical Center we found that teledermatology is a reliable and valid mode of providing dermatological care. As the demand for dermatological services increases, teledermatology can serve as a medium to provide these services to rural or primary care physicians. It can also service as an aid in busy emergency departments, where wai/ng for a face-to-face dermatology consult can take hours. In our study, teledermatology had minimal start-up costs, and had complete agreement with diagnos/c and management recommenda/ons to a FTF dermatologist. It should not, however, be thought of as a gold standard for dermatology delivery. Limita/on of our study is the sample size, thus, further research is needed to evaluate the applica/on of teledermatology in the health care seRng. REFERENCES 1. Eedy DR, WooVon R.
