Abstract

Education is a key feature of diabetes care. Diabetes education in rural and remote areas has been disadvantaged when accessing continuing education by diabetes specialists. To support patients with diabetes and medical staffs in remote areas, we have developed education using a video conferencing, a satellite network, and a cable television (CATV) network. Gunma University and a studio of Tsumagoi village or Ueno village, in the mountain area of Gunma prefecture, were connected with video conferencing, and the Tsumagoi studio and each residence of Tsumagoi and Ueno villages were connected by CATV through a satellite network. Programs were broadcast live and interactive. Patients and medical staffs in the Tsumagoi studio, asked questions of diabetes professionals, who answered via the TVscreen. Questionnaires showed this education to be useful, mainly because so many thus specialists were able to participate. Teleeducation thus facilitates communication between patients and medical staffs in remote area with professionals.
