Telecardiology

Overview

Since its introduction, technology continues to change many key things we associate with our lives. One of those is Healthcare. Could we have even imagined the possibility of receiving a diagnosis report on an ECG Test conducted by a cardiologist sitting miles away?! How about monitoring a pacemaker in real-time from a remote location! It’s really exciting because it’s true as Medical Science has made this possible through Telecardiology.

The Emergence of Telecardiology

The last couple of years have seen the world go through a period of tremendous stress due to the Covid-19 pandemic resulting in a complete collapse of the global healthcare system and if anyone really wondered how technology can make that all-important contribution to saving the world to whatever best extent it could, the answer is in the form of TeleHealth. With top medical professionals trying to play safe by keeping physical contact with the patients to the barest minimum, it was a challenge to diagnose and treat disorders associated with some of the critical organs of our body including the heart and lungs. This is when Telecardiology announced its arrival and immediately became a gamechanger as far as heart care is concerned.

How does Telecardiology Work?

Telecardiology technology is very straightforward. For e.g., consider having an ECG test. After completing a 12-lead ECG test at your local hospital, the image is transmitted in real-time as a sound signal over a telephone line. The audio signal is then reconverted into an image once it reaches the telecardiology facility.

The image is then interpreted by a cardiologist or specialist, who studies it and shares his diagnosis via email or fax. Following that, the diagnosing specialist will respond with a verbal report. This process is usually completed before you leave your local hospital.
