Primary | Admission to the hospital | To determine the benefit of teledermatology to differentiate cellulitis from pseudocellulitis in emergency departments through the analysis of time spent in the emergency department (ED), admission to the inpatient hospital, antibiotic use, time to improvement, We anticipate a high rate of pseudocellulitis, and this aim will determine if there is a difference in patient admissions among those who receive a dermatologic assessment | 30 days | |
Secondary | Length of stay in the hospital | Will assess time spent in the hospital for those that were admitted | 30 days post admission | |
Secondary | 30 day readmission rate | Will assess hospitalization/emergency department readmission in the following 30 days | 30 days post admission | |
Secondary | Antibiotic use | Will assess the frequency of antibiotic use between groups | 30 days post admission |
