A Novel Application of Teleneurology: Robotic Telepresence in Supervision of Neurology Trainees

Abstract

Overall, 85% of both trainees and faculty preferred in-person supervision most, with RTP ranked second and telephone being least favored. Although in-person faculty supervision of trainees' management of neurologic emergencies is always preferred, it is not always practical. This survey highlights the valuable role of RTP in graduate medical education and RTP as preferred over telephone as an adjunctive supervision tool in residency.
