But the tele-ICU′cost-effectiveness and practice models have a lot of confusions.Further studies are needed in the areas.For successfully implementing tele-ICU,some elements such as data security,legal and institutional guarantee,staff acceptance,management and quality improvement,patient and family understanding are basic. More better above-mentioned,more widely used of tele-ICU and globalizing of tele-critical care.
