Nurse Lady Murrugarra presented her project ePrevencion on 26 May 2016 at the Hospital Edgardo Rebagliati in Lima, Peru. The focus was on TeleHealth and Teleconsultation for Cardiovascular Health.

For those interested in her presentation, here’s the power point:

The country faces a chronic deficit of more than 8.000 medical doctors with 1.200 doctors leaving annually to work in foreign countries, EU, Chile, Brazil. TeleHealth is seen as a promising service to reach the patients in rural areas.
