A Novel Large Scale Integrated Telemonitoring Program for COVID-19.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has forced health care systems to rethink the optimal delivery of health care services and has dramatically increased demand for general medicine providers (internal medicine, family medicine, emergency medicine), while simultaneously reducing demand for many subspecialty services. At Kaiser Permanente, we implemented a program wherein health care providers drawn from multiple disciplines perform daily telemedicine check-ins on COVID-19 patients, allowing us to both maintain social distancing and make use of providers in specialties who otherwise may have had lower in-clinic volumes. Kaiser Permanente patients testing positive for COVID-19 between March and October 2020 were referred to our program.

Arcus tendineus fascia pelvis: a further understanding.

Objective: The study was undertaken to further define the anatomy of the arcus tendineus fascia pelvis (ATFP).

Study Design: Thirty cadavers were dissected to find the average length, SD, and range of the ATFP. Comparisons were made to height and pelvis type.
