Show Brain Waves Telephoned To Utah Medical Center A new concept of "telemedithe examination of pacine" tients over lout; distances is Mug pioneered at the University of Utah. Doctors in the Department of Neurology are now transmitting (brain waves) from distant communities to the U Medical Center. SPONSORED by the - - Inter-mounta- Regional Medicul Program (IRMP), the project involves regular EEC transmissions Iwtween Twin Falls, Idaho and the Medical Center in Salt Lake City, a distance of some 210 miles. The system was established by Dr. Donald R. Bennett, assistant professor of neurology, and Dr. Reed M. Gardner, assistant professor of biophysics and bioengineering. The University of Utah EEC lab is probably the only one in the world that is routinely transmitting EEC's from one area to unother, said Dr. Bennet(. More than 350 EEC's have been relayed since the Twin Falls-Sa-lt Lake City system was established a year ago. "Sending EECs like this from a small city to a large one opens the door for some exciting new developments in medicine," Dr. Bennett added. "Using the same methods, it is technically possible to send other medical data by telephone, including blood pressures, EEC's, and even closed circuit television pictures of patients. THERE ARE now only 15 electroencephalographic labs in the Utah- - Nevada- - Southern Idaho region, and 13 of them are located in Salt Lake City, Ogden and with neurological diseases' without losing valuable time by having them travel to Salt Lake Citv." THE INTERCITY system was demonstrated at a recent meeting of the International Congress of Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology in San Diego, with EECs from patients being transmitted from to the convention in Twin that Southern California city. Information on the method has since been requested by neurologists from around the world, including some from Russia. The EEC transmissions from Twin Falls average about $55 per patient, compared to $35 for those taken in Salt Lake City, but Dr. Bennett says the extra expense is well worth the time and money saved on the e trip to Salt Lake City. WHILE inter-citcommunication of all kinds of medical data is technically possible, it is currently limited by the high cost of renting telephone equipment and long distance rates, according to Dr. Bennett. Medical Center doctors le!ieve these rates must be reduced to enable progress in computerized telemedicine, a field which holds great promise. "It is now technically possible to set up a system that would allow small hospitals to plugin critically ill patients to the Utah computers and monitor their condition in Salt Lake City, Such faciliDr. Bennett said. ties already being demonstrated not limited only by the cost of rental equipment, telephone rates and the need for additional technicians. 240-mil- y Provo. The system set up by Dr. Bennett and Dr. Gardner includes a $5,700 EEC machine in Magic Valley Memorial Hospital in Twin Falls. Brain waves from patients are sent from this machine in six channels over ordinary telephone lines. In Salt Lake City, the signals are picked up on two dataphones and fed into another EEC machine for reproduction. This is just one way the Medical Center can extend its services to isolated, rural areas and to small communities that do not have expert consultation available, Dr. Bennett added. "It allows us to evaluate patients Naval Officer Home for Christmas The Howard Haines family, 678 Crestview Drive, were surprised at about 11:00 p.m. Monday when the man who entered their home dressed as Santa Claus turned out to be their son Keith.
