Résumé
Telemedicine has been a technological takeaway for the developed countries. Even in the developing countries, it is increasingly being viewed as a tool for improving care and enhancing access to healthcare. Countries like India where the majority of the population lives in rural areas, where healthcare facilities are inefficient and inadequate, tools like telemedicine can contribute substantially in bridging the gap between the demand and supply. "Sanjeevani"-is an integrated telemedicine application that offers a suite of high utility features as a part of an Indian telemedicine technology. Sanjeevani is based on store and forward as well as real-time models.

The relative efficacy of intermittent catheterisation, self or assisted, over indwelling catheterisation was studied on 44 patients of different extent of spinal cord lesions. All the surviving cases (9) of incomplete cord lesion became catheter free irrespective of the method of catheterisation. In these patients urine was also found to be infection free by the 5th week of admission. Twenty-seven cases of complete cord lesion (out of a total of 35) became catheter free, of whom 18 patients were on intermittent catheterisation (out of a total of 20) and 9 patients were on indwelling catheter (out of a total of 15 cases). In the later group incidence of urine infection was higher. Other complications like urethral trauma were comparable between patients with indwelling catheter and patients with intermittent, self or assisted, catheterisation.
