There is a severe shortage of critical care doctors and nurses to provide intensive-care services in hospitals. To offset this shortage, many hospitals, such as Emory Hospital in Atlanta, are using electronic intensive-care units (eICUs) to help provide this care to patients (Emory University News Center). eICUs use electronic monitoring tools and two-way communication through video and audio so that a centralized staff of specially trained doctors and nurses - who can be located as far away as Australia - can provide critical care services to patients located in remote hospitals without fully staffed ICUs.
