Vetted Performance Status
While not specific to this product, a study conducted in Uganda and Guatemala found that smartphone-based systems for teledermatology consultation using a medical student proxy are feasible for delivery of care in the developing world at relatively little cost. Physicians consulting with patients can consult with 4-10 times more patients. Patients receive specialist consultation in less than 3 days.
