"Only the background — a white void — reveals she's not with us."\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>The holographic device is called a Holobox, designed by the Netherlands startup Holoconnect. With the stature of an oversized vending machine, the Holobox more or less functions as an enormous booth that can display a life-sized image of a physician or anyone else calling in.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cpicture class=\"image-align-left\">\u003Csource srcset=\"https://cdn.quasa.io/photos/photo/21_11/doctor3.webp\" type=\"image/webp\">\u003Cimg alt=\"Rural Hospital Installs Holograph Machine So Doctors Can Appear From Elsewhere\" class=\"image-align-left\" height=\"200\" src=\"https://cdn.quasa.io/photos/photo/21_11/doctor3.jpeg\" width=\"300\" />\u003C/picture>The holographs are created using a transparent LCD screen, which is practically invisible, housed behind a layer of anti-glare glass. As such, the images aren't being projected into 3D space, but instead create the illusion of three-dimensionality.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>It's not quite "Star Wars," but the effect is apparently compelling. Dr. Olayinka Adepitan, the anesthesiologist interviewed by Texas Monthly, called the tech a "game changer." She found that patients were more attentive during her Holobox call-ins than during typical \u003Ca href=\"https://quasa.io/media/telehealth-solutions-clinicians-outlook\">telehealth \u003C/a>visits (like over Zoom).\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>"The longer we talk, the more I forget that in reality Adepitan is at a clinic in Farmers Branch, about thirty miles north," Dent wrote.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>As the first hospital to deploy the technology this way, Crescent is currently using the Holobox for pre-surgery and post-surgery consultations. Adepitan told Texas Monthly that it allows her to discharge patients sooner than if she had to wait to drive to the county, a trip she's only scheduled to make twice a week.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Thanks to the tech, Adepitan simply reports to the nearby medical center she normally works at, and sits in front of a camera and white screen to beam herself in remotely. She views patients through a TV monitor, while a local nurse does the work of physically examining the patient.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cpicture class=\"image-align-left\">\u003Csource srcset=\"https://cdn.quasa.io/photos/photo/21_11/doctor4.webp\" type=\"image/webp\">\u003Cimg alt=\"Rural Hospital Installs Holograph Machine So Doctors Can Appear From Elsewhere\" class=\"image-align-left\" height=\"200\" src=\"https://cdn.quasa.io/photos/photo/21_11/doctor4.jpeg\" width=\"300\" />\u003C/picture>As Texas Monthly\u003Cem> \u003C/em>notes, rural areas across the country are chronically short-staffed of medical professionals. Rural Texas has suffered dozens of hospital closures in the past decade. Among doctors, there is enthusiasm for telehealth, tech-inflected or otherwise, as one way of relieving the shortage — but some stress that it's not the be-all and end-all.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>"We see \u003Ca href=\"https://quasa.io/media/how-can-telehealth-help-to-monitor-mental-health\">telehealth \u003C/a>as a very important innovation for rural communities," John Henderson, CEO of Texas Organization of Rural and Community Hospitals, told Texas Monthly. "We do not see it as a silver bullet."\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>It's also not cheap. The Holobox costs Crescent hospital $65,000 upfront, on top of $1,200 a month in maintenance. But the hospital's CEO Raji Kumar, who pushed for the tech, argues that offering holographic appointments may be a way for struggling rural hospitals to retain patients — and therefore make money — who may forego a local medical center since it can't attract top specialists.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Also read:\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cul>\n\t\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"https://quasa.io/media/next-gen-board-games-play-online-without-boxes-or-hosting-hassles\">Next-Gen Board Games: Play Online Without Boxes or Hosting Hassles\u003C/a>\u003C/li>\n\t\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"https://quasa.io/media/tech-driven-efficiency-how-automation-is-changing-on-demand-services\">Tech-Driven Efficiency: How Automation Is Changing On-Demand Services\u003C/a>\u003C/li>\n\t\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"https://quasa.io/media/how-to-post-videos-on-instagram-in-different-ways\">How to Post Videos on Instagram in Different Ways\u003C/a>\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\n\u003Cp>Thank you!\u003Cbr />\nJoin us on social media!\u003Cbr />\nSee you!\u003C/p>","rural-hospital-installs-holograph-machine-so-doctors-can-appear-from-elsewhere","2024-11-20T15:25:37.000000Z","2024-11-21T03:00:00.000000Z","21.11.2024",{"image":81,"image_webp":82,"thumb":83,"thumb_webp":84},"https://cdn.quasa.io/images/news/nKtySWKdWwcz16lbfzUBC1efAXXH0tDa2AqtVOkS.jpg","https://cdn.quasa.io/images/news/nKtySWKdWwcz16lbfzUBC1efAXXH0tDa2AqtVOkS.webp","https://cdn.quasa.io/thumbs/news-thumb/images/news/nKtySWKdWwcz16lbfzUBC1efAXXH0tDa2AqtVOkS.jpg","https://cdn.quasa.io/thumbs/news-thumb/images/news/nKtySWKdWwcz16lbfzUBC1efAXXH0tDa2AqtVOkS.webp","small",null,1247,12,"en",0,{"id":42,"title":43,"slug":44,"meta_title":92,"meta_description":93,"meta_keywords":94,"deleted_at":86,"created_at":95,"updated_at":96,"lang":89},"Quasa media blog about growth hacking in Tech","All the most interesting and useful about technologies.
