Thu, 28 May 2015
This is a reminder for the following study regarding the efficacy of digital otoscopy. This survey will be closed on June 8, 2015. Thank you in advance for your participation.
Dear Otolaryngology Professionals,
I am a James Madison University Audiology doctoral student conducting research on a portable iPhone otoscope, as seen in the picture above. My dissertation is evaluating the use of the Cell Scope portable iPhone otoscope in tele-practice for Audiologists and Otolaryngologists. To do this, I have collected digital otoscopy images of pathological ears from a local Otolaryngologist's office and uploaded them onto a survey. The goal of our study is to see whether pictures taken with this instrument can be used in telemedicine. The results will provide support for continued research into telemedicine technologies as well as evidence for the clinical use of telemedicine by Audiologists and Otolaryngologists. If you would like to participate in the survey please click this link: http://jmu.co1.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_d5w7rjEoLyUlyuN The password to enter the survey is "guest." Please use your computer (not your smartphone or tablet) to take the survey. At the completion of the survey, you will have the option to be directed to a webpage with a 20% discount code for the CellScope as a thank you from the researchers.
