Abstract

Emergency department (ED) consultation is an important part of acute
patient care and one of the major determinants of ED length of stay (LOS). ED
consultations between physicians who may not be in the same location
frequently, require a tool to reach out one another and communicate. This paper
reviews the historical change and development of consultation tools.
The literature on
ED consultation methods have been accumulating for the last two decades as the diversity
of these methods has increased with technology. Most of the studies demonstrate
that high tech systems are useful and safe to reach the consultant and share
medical information flow. Moreover, the future of the area offers new developments regarding
consultation tools that are hard to imagine yet like augmented reality.
