Official title
Can Telemedicine Examinations of the Abdomen Safely Determine the Need for Abdominal Imaging?
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
A study of patients with abdominal pain being seen by physicians at an academic emergency department and by physicians who are based remotely (telehealth). Hypothesis: When a patient with abdominal pain is examined by a physician at the hospital versus a physician who is remote (i.e. not at the hospital), they will agree most of the time for the need of abdominal imaging for the patient within 12 hours of their examination.
