Tiivistelmä
Over 72% of population in Finland lives in urban area which covers 5% of the land surface, while nearly 30% of population is distributing in the rest of 95% areas all over Finland. An evaluation on the social and health services in Finland shows that, the inadequate equal access to medical care is hindered by the traveling and waiting time. It had also been approved that distance to access health care has negative impact on health outcome. How to improve the equal access to all populations becomes a big challenge for each municipal health services providers.
Telemedicine, sometimes described as telehealth, eHealth, designed to overcome the obstacles of time and space to deliver medical care, had been highlighted and adopted deeper into practical use by health services providers. Registered nurses being the most front-line healthcare providers with physical contacts in the community, play a critical role in telehealth services.
In the above mentioned situation, portability and mobility are especially important in the set up of telemedicine when the aim is to provide patient-based medical services. Based on various consideration, a Multipurpose Medical Camera, a portable hand-piece which performs different type of basic examination digitally, was selected as an exploratory product by the RoboSote project managed by Centria University of Applied Sciences HealthLab. This portable medical camera would allow the operators to capture images or videos during medical examination and transfer to medical providers who work remotely on the background for diagnosis and draw up treatment plans. It could be a tool to improve healthcare access for patients living in remote areas or with decreased mobility.
The purpose of this thesis is to produce a video tutorial on the use of this Multipurpose Medical Camera. This video is aimed to be as a training material for nursing students studying in Centria University of Applied Sciences, as well as registered nurses who will be working related to the use of this camera. This video was presented in English, with subtitles in English, Finnish and Chinese.
