Revolutionizing Mental Health Care: Remote Psychiatry Platform The mental healthcare landscape is evolving thanks to technological innovations that improve the effectiveness and accessibility of mental health services.  In-person consultations are valuable but often face limits like long waiting periods, geographical barriers, travel costs, and stigmas associated with visits to a mental health professional. Remote psychiatry has emerged as a response. It’s a flexible and discreet option for patients and mental health care providers.  Psych 1 is a great example of a dedicated psychiatric telehealth provider revolutionizing the practice and delivery of psychiatry in Australia. Let’s discover why digital innovations like this platform hold immense transformative potential. https://lnkd.in/dQwhe28N #telehealth #onlinehelp #digital #remotepsychiatry

Did you know that between 2016 and 2021, Psychiatry (+26.3%) saw the second most growth in first-year ACGME fellows and residents? 💡 This growth is prominently due to lifestyle choices—in particular the ability to control one’s own calendar. As psychiatry grows, there has also been an increase in interest in telepsychiatry. This allows patients who do not have immediate access to mental health services (eg, those who live in rural communities) to receive care from trained psychiatric clinicians.

A persistent challenge in psychiatry is the lack of objective measures for evaluating and tracking mental health over time. https://jhuapl.link/kb9 By harnessing recent technological breakthroughs in physiological monitoring and machine learning, researchers at Johns Hopkins APL in collaboration with psychiatrists at Johns Hopkins Medicine, have made significant strides toward creating objective digital measures for assessing and tracking mental health. Tagged TEAPOT by its APL developers, the project encompasses a telehealth suite for performing “digital phenotyping” for psychiatric health to provide physicians with clinically relevant data during virtual visits. While traditional phenotyping entails deriving a person’s physical appearance from their DNA, digital phenotyping taps physiological data to estimate symptoms associated with psychiatric disorders, such as depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder. #JHUAPL | #JHU | Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health | #psychiatry | #DigitalPhenotyping | #telehealth | #MentalHealth | #neurodiversity
