Telehealth: Cardiopulmonary Assessment

Telehealth: Cardiopulmonary Assessment

Offered by

Duke School of Medicine

Overview

How can you reliably provide cardiopulmonary care for patients virtually? What types of remote monitoring devices can you use to diagnose cardiopulmonary complaints? What cardiopulmonary conditions can be assessed without a clinic visit?  In this course, we’ll be focusing on protocols and practical tips to perform a reliable remote cardiopulmonary assessment. Building on your clinical knowledge, we give helpful ways to modify your practice to suit the context of a telehealth video visit. 

This course will cover many of the areas you’d want to assess after the reporting of a cardiopulmonary complaint. We’ll provide methods to assess respiratory status, jugular venous pressure, and strategies and benefits for remote patient monitoring. To bring it all together, we’ll also provide tips on how to use common wearable devices to gain insights that can help accurately identify maladies and patient status. 

This course doesn’t assume any previous experience with telehealth or specific technologies, but will rely on your previous experience with physical assessments. Whether you are adept at performing telehealth visits, or a complete novice, this course contains practices and expert guidance to positively benefit your practice.
