Trauma Telemedicine Programs

The IDHI trauma telemedicine programs connect UAMS trauma and subspecialty experts with emergency departments statewide using telehealth coverage and image-sharing technologies. These programs rapidly evaluate injuries such as hand trauma, review imaging and help decide if patients can be safely treated locally or need transfer to a higher-level trauma center. This specialty access reduces unnecessary transfers, shortens travel for rural patients, and helps Arkansas’ trauma system deliver timely, cost-effective care close to home.

IDHI Stroke Program

The IDHI stroke program connects UAMS vascular neurologists with more than 60 Arkansas hospitals, many without on-site neurologists. Specialists guide local emergency teams in rapidly evaluating stroke symptoms, interpreting imaging, and deciding whether to administer thrombolytic therapy using real-time telehealth technology. The program reduces preventable stroke disability and mortality and supports cost-effective care in communities that would otherwise require long transfers for specialty care.
