Telementoring!
Do “mentoring” right from your office! Welcome to the world of Proxiemie
We all remember our first complex case. Despite meticulous planning, we brought our trusted senior colleague for ‘just in case’ scenarios. What if, your trusted colleague can still guide you while sitting in their airconditioned office?
Proxiemie are bringing in their virtual reality programme with a function called telepresence. You can attend and teach live surgeries while sitting in your clinic. The software works with any hardware and all you need is a laptop to give instructions.
They also make proprietary kits for wearable cameras and dedicated tablets and cameras. For Surgeons in the West, it is GDPR and HIPAA compatible.
‘Telementoring’ as they say, can improve skills and experience beyond geographical barriers like the instance where the surgeon sitting in his living room in Seattle, virtually scrubbed in to guide surgery in London.
