Doctors at Rhode Island Hospital in Providence recently performed a small study designed to gauge reactions to a gadget that hasn't quite gotten off the ground among general consumers.
The doctors used Google Glass, the eyewear that includes a tiny camera and can transmit video to anyone with an Internet connection — including other doctors. In theory, such a practice would allow health care professionals to display someone's symptoms to a specialist in the field. The possibility of electronic doctoring holds the potential to revolutionize the average hospital experience, potentially reducing wait times and improving care, these researchers said.
