About

Alyssa Chauncey’s research lies at the critical intersection of telemedicine, neurocritical care, and clinical assessment, with a focus on improving outcomes for patients with decreased consciousness. Her most cited work, a 2017 study on the reliability of robotic telemedicine for assessing critically ill patients, demonstrated that remote evaluations using the Full Outline of UnResponsiveness (FOUR) Score and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) are as dependable as in-person assessments. This finding, cited 24 times, has significant implications for expanding access to neurological expertise in underserved or rural settings, where timely triage can be life-saving. Chauncey’s contributions have helped validate telemedicine as a tool for standardizing coma assessments, reducing diagnostic delays, and guiding early management. Her work underscores the potential of technology to bridge gaps in critical care, particularly for patients with altered mental status. By rigorously testing these remote methods, she has provided a foundation for integrating tele-neurology into emergency and intensive care protocols, ultimately enhancing equity and efficiency in neurocritical medicine.
