Changing the way perinatal care is delivered through telemedicine + live ultrasound streaming
What is Perinatal Access?
Perinatal Access is a cloud-based digital health platform that leverages telemedicine and live ultrasound streaming to enable OB/GYN physicians and other specialists in the Obstetric space (Maternal Fetal Medicine, Pediatric Cardiology, etc.) to be more effective.
Why do we need Perinatal Access today more than ever?
With the coming shortage of OB/GYN physicians (9,000 short by 2020) and the limited number of Maternal Fetal Medicine physicians (only 2,000 in entire US), the need to leverage technology to increase access to specialist care is greater than ever.
How is Perinatal Access changing the way perinatal care is delivered?
Our technology allows for a video visit between a remote physician and patient at another clinic or hospital. It gives the remote physician the ability to see a real-time stream of the patient’s ultrasound. In the past, physicians had to be in the room during an ultrasound. With Perinatal Access, physicians can be down the road or across the country and interact with the patient and the ultrasound in real-time from their iPad or iPhone.
Perinatal Access is just getting started and currently developing a “asynchronous” solution as well for transfer and storage of DICOM images via the cloud.
