TELEMEDICINE FOR EMERGENCY:
A PILOT SITE FOR CARDIOLOGICAL AND RADIOLOGICAL TELECONSULTING
in PROCIDA and ISCHIA islands connected to ASL-NA2 General Hospitals of POZZUOLI and GIUGLIANO, Vascular Surgery Clinic of the University of Naples "Federico II" and Private Hospital VILLALBA
 


This work has been developed in the framework of sub project 4 "Telemedicine for emergency" within the G7 Program. The project aims to create a cardiological and radiological teleconsulting system to connect the little islands of Procida and Ischia to main hospitals considered excellence centres (or sites). This is a very important aspect because the islands of Procida and Ischia are well know touristic places in South Italy and the number of residents (e.g. 6.000 persons for Procida) becomes ten-twenty times more during summertime. In particular Procida does not have an hospital, but only a very simple and small ambulatory service that is certainly undersized during summer and unsuited for specialistic controls.
