Abstract:
Telemedicina je hitro razvijajoče se področje, ki na učinkovit način zagotavlja zdravstvene storitve. Ker se pri telemedicini, tako kot v vsakdanji običajni klinični praksi, rokuje z občutljivimi osebnimi podatki, se je treba zavedati nevarnosti spletnega kriminala ter spoznati načine za zaščito pred takimi napadi. Področje varovanja osebnih podatkov je slovenski in evropski pravni prostor dobro opredelil, obstajajo pa odprta še nekatera nerazrešena vprašanja na področju telemedicine. Telemedicinske storitve delimo na sinhrone (v realnem času, npr. videokonference) in asinhrone (z zaostankom v komunikaciji, npr. spletna pošta) ter na spremljanje parametrov zdravja na daljavo (spremljanje arterijskega tlaka, krvnega sladkorja ipd.). Vsako od teh področij ima svoje varnostne značilnosti in posebnosti. Varovanje osebnih podatkov je pri telemedicinskih storitvah potrebno zagotoviti na sistemski in individualni ravni. Vsak zaposleni v zdravstvu, ki izvaja storitve na področju telemedicine, mora pri svojem delu skrbeti za varnost podatkov. Posebej pomembno se je redno izobraževati na temo informacijske varnosti. Tudi v Sloveniji se izvaja že sorazmerno veliko telemedicinskih projektov, med katerimi jih je nekaj tudi prešlo v redno uporabo. Eden najobsežnejših zdravstvenih projektov pri nas je projekt eZdravje, ki med drugim vključuje tudi nekatere telemedicinske storitve (TeleKap, Teleradiologija, ePosvet).

Abstract:
This paper analyzes four issues about “telemedicine” in light of the systems (norms), responsibilities, and liabilities in effectively connecting health services. The structures are: First is “face to face examination” as a general principle and physician’s responsibility and liability. Second is dividing lines between physicians and physicians in telemedicine. Third are about areas which should be regulated by medical practitioners acts in providing telemedicine. Fourth is fee arrangements and cost burden for continuing telemedicine projects. The authors argue that not telemedicine’s special features as a means, but judgments for its medical necessity should be focused. The authors also alert that a responsibility can arise to establish a business model where all of the actors are responsible for managing healthcare delivery systems will continue to involve in the delivery of telemedicine, because patients become deeply in despair when telemedicine services stop without any alternative ways to get medical cares.

Abstract:
ObjectiveThe aim of this prospective study was to survey our patients about their experience with our clinic's telemedicine program to better understand telemedicine's utility for families, and to improve patient satisfaction and ultimately patient care.MethodsThis was a prospective survey study of patients and their families who had a routine telemedicine follow-up visit with the University of California San Francisco Pediatric Headache Program. The survey was administered to patients and a parent(s) following their telemedicine visit.ResultsFifty-one of 69 surveys (74%) were completed. All (51/51) patients and families thought that (1) telemedicine was more convenient compared to a clinic visit, (2) telemedicine caused less disruption of their daily routine, and (3) they would choose to do telemedicine again. The mean round-trip travel time from home to clinic was 6.8 hours (SD ± 8.6 hours). All participants thought telemedicine was more cost-effective than a clinic visit. Parents estimated that participating in a telemedicine visit instead of a clinic appointment saved them on average $486.ConclusionThis prospective, pediatric headache telemedicine study shows that telemedicine is convenient, perceived to be cost-effective, and patient-centered. Providing the option of telemedicine for routine pediatric headache follow-up visits results in high patient and family satisfaction.

Abstract:
Telemedicine has become indispensable in contemporary healthcare, reshaping patient care worldwide. The utilization of it has significantly risen in the Philippines, particularly during the pandemic, mirroring a global trend. Nevertheless, there is a dearth of studies regarding its pragmatic implementation among Filipino physicians, a crucial aspect for enhancing healthcare delivery. A qualitative analysis utilized in-depth interviews with experienced physicians in the Philippines. The researchers employed an inductive methodology to investigate how 13 physicians integrate telemedicine into their private medical practices. The selection of participants was purposeful, specifically targeting physicians with more than two years of experience in telemedicine. The qualitative data collected was subjected to a rigorous thematic analysis, comprehensively examining the current telemedicine integration situations. The examination of the data indicated a central theme: ‘Transcending Telemedicine’, emphasizing its influence that goes beyond being a mere technological tool. It overcomes time, space, and geography constraints, enhancing physicians’ ability to serve patients. There are four subcategories connected that contribute to or hinder the achievement of this goal: factors influencing adoption and factors influencing implementation and responses and reactions to telemedicine adoption. This paper contributes to the general understanding of telemedicine’s function in healthcare, specifically in the setting of a developing country. It emphasizes the necessity for continuous support and adjustment to maximize its benefits.

Abstract:
Telemedicine’s underutilization ended when the COVID-19 pandemic caused people to isolate and kept them from seeking healthcare services at their local hospitals and clinics. With the aid of the CARES Act of March 2020, healthcare providers quickly implemented telemedicine services to meet the various needs of their patients. During the pandemic, healthcare systems saw a significant increase in telemedicine visits. Essential industries turned to healthcare providers for assistance in keeping their workers healthy and to maintain production in the country’s critical infrastructure. Telemedicine services could quickly address health concerns, help address industry needs, and combat workforce shortages. As quickly as telemedicine services grew, telemedicine service utilization waned as people started to move closer to a pre-pandemic lifestyle. This descriptive study builds on an in-depth literature review by utilizing a fishbone diagram and SWOT analysis examining the potential factors related to telemedicine underutilization. To promote telemedicine utilization, application of Rogers’ Diffusion of Innovation theory outlines how to gain support for the benefits of telemedicine and build on opportunities brought out by the COVID-19 pandemic. Implication for practice could include establishing virtual clinics for industries plagued with workforce shortages.

Abstract:
Background. There is a global shortage of healthcare professionals, especially in developing countries, leading to disparities in access to healthcare, worsened by the pandemic. Telemedicine is emerging as a solution, with growing adoption worldwide due to advancements in technology and increased awareness. Research Problem. The establishment of telemedicine depends on resources, infrastructure, and knowledge about healthcare needs. Further studies are needed to monitor and address evolving issues in telemedicine. The Overall Purpose of the Study. Rural health disparities stem from multiple factors, like limited healthcare access, workforce shortages, lifestyle choices, and lower socioeconomic status, leading to higher mortality and chronic diseases. Addressing these challenges is vital for rural community well-being. Telemedicine centers present a promising solution, bridging gaps, and improving healthcare outcomes for underserved remote populations. Methodology. Objective: This study assessed the clinicodemographic profile and clinical outcome of children presenting to the telemedicine center at the Institute of National Importance in India. Design: Prospective observational study. Setting: A single-center tertiary care level. Participants: This study included 79 children aged up to 18 years. Major Findings and Summary of Interpretations. In our study, 79 children using telemedicine found a near-equal gender distribution. 8.9% needed emergency care, with common complaints being respiratory issues, fever, abdominal pain, and vomiting. After two weeks, 83.5% showed improvement, emphasizing telemedicine’s effectiveness in pediatric care. Conclusion. Our study underscores telemedicine’s positive impact on pediatric healthcare, emphasizing its potential to enhance access, outcomes, and cost-efficiency. Wider telemedicine adoption can reduce morbidity and mortality, support preventive care, and streamline posttreatment services, alleviating pressure on specialized facilities. While our focus was pediatrics, the telemedicine model is adaptable to various age groups and conditions, but it should be seen as a valuable supplement to, not a total substitute for, in-person healthcare visits.

Abstract:
Telemedicine means delivery of medical care and provision of general health services from a distance. Telemedicine tools have been evolved for at home COVID-19 diagnosis, screening, monitoring and treatment. Telemedicine has been practiced for decades with increasing evidence proving its potential for enhanced quality of care for patients, reduction in hospital admission and increase in savings for both patients and health care providers. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a significant increase in the reliance on telemedicine and telehealth for provision of health care services. Development in telemedicine should be structured as complement to current healthcare procedures, not with the goal of completely digitizing the entire healthcare system but rather to use the power of technology to enhance areas that may not be working at their full potential. At the same time, it is also clear that further research is required on the efficacy of telemedicine in terms of both financial and patient benefits. We are hereby discussing the current and rapidly increasing knowledge about the use of telemedicine and identify the gaps in knowledge and opportunity for further research. Beginning with telemedicine’s origin to its widespread use during the COVID-19 pandemic, we highlight the use of biosensors and use of telemedicine in this article.

Abstract:
This project investigates whether customer arrivals to digital healthcare providers can be appropriately modeled by non-homogeneous Poisson processes (NHPPs). Data from a large Swedish telemedicine provider was examined, with the goal of confirming that the data exhibited the two required properties of Poisson processes: customer interarrival times being (i) exponentially distributed, and (ii) independently and identically distributed. The arrival process was modeled as a piecewise constant arrival function, with several interval lengths considered. Two statistical tests were performed, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Brock-Dechert-Scheinkman tests, to confirm whether the two properties held. The experiments showed that a majority of intervals exhibited both properties, suggesting that NHPPs are a useful approach for modeling telemedicine customer arrival data.
Detta arbete undersöker kundankomster till digitala vårdgivare, och huruvida dessa kan modelleras med en inhomogen Poissonprocess (NHPP). Data från en stor svensk digital vårdgivare har undersökts, med målet att bekräfta om datan uppvisar de två egenskaperna som krävs av en Poissonprocess: att tiden mellan ankomster är (i) exponentialfördelade, och (ii) oberoende och likafördelade. Markovprocessen som beskriver ankomsterna har beskrivits som en styckvis konstant funktion. Två statistiska test har genomförts, Kolmogorov-Smirnov och Brock-Dechert-Scheinkman. Enligt resultaten uppvisade en majoritet av datan de två egenskaperna, vilket antyder att inhomogena Poissonprocesser är en användbar modell för ankomster till digitala vårdgivare.

Abstract:
Den svenska sjukvården står idag för ett antal utmaningar om den skall fortsatt kunna erbjuda god service som vårdgivare och vara attraktiv som arbetsgivare. Bland annat diskuteras frågor som förvärrad platsbrist, läkarbrist samt avstånd till specialistsjukvård. På Karolinska Universitetssjukhuset i Solna ligger Radiumhemmet och där behandlas bland annat lungcancerpatienter. Där diskuteras huruvida telemedicin kan vara en möjlig väg för att lösa ovanstående problem. Denna uppsats utreder på vilket sätt telemedicin kan användas på Radiumhemmet för lungcancerpatienter. För att kunna utreda en telemedicinsk lösnings möjligheter på Radiumhemmet genomfördes intervjuer och fokusgrupper med personalen. Externa experter från sjukvården och industri intervjuades och ett besök gjordes på barnsjukhuset Childrens Healthcare of Atlanta, USA, där man har kommit långt i användningen av telemedicin. Det finns delar av verksamheten på Radiumhemmet där telemedicin skulle kunna bidra till att skapa möjligheter till en tätare kontakt mellan patient och vårdpersonal. Detta i syfte att lugna oroliga patienter och hjälpa till med lättare symptombedömningar och på så sätt minska väntetiderna. Genom de undersökningar som utfördes upptäcktes dock även svagheter i en telemedicinsk lösning avsedd för lungcancerpatienter. Patientgruppen ofta är äldre med liten erfarenhet av datorer och sjukdomen är allvarlig. Det krävs personlig kontakt och fysiska undersökningar, men i vilken utsträckning är individuellt. Telemedicin kanske inte kan ses som en absolut lösning för de problem som råder i sjukvården idag när det kommer till lungcancerpatienter, men väl som ett komplement. Om lungcancerpatienter är den optimala målgruppen är ifrågasättbart men att telemedicin kan underlätta i den svenska sjukvården står klart.
Nowadays the health care system in Sweden is faced with several challenges like shortage of space, physicians and long distances to specialized health care. A possible solution for this being discussed at the lung cancer department of Karolinska University 2 Hospital is the use of telemedicine. If implemented it would be part of the followup treatment. The objective of our research is to find out if this technology can help improve the health care. In order to investigate the opportunity for a telemedicine solution, we collected qualitative data from multiple different sources. This included two doctors specialized in lung cancer, and a focus group with nurses from Radiumhemmet. We also conducted interviews with relevant individuals outside the hospital including Nirav Desai who is the Founder and CEO of Hands On Telehealth; furthermore, we visited the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta based in Atlanta, Georgia where telemedicine is used on a daily basis. Thanks to the carried out research, we have discovered that telemedicine could be used in certain scenarios and contribute towards a more frequent contact between the patient and the medical professionals. Thus, this new technique could help nurses execute lighter symptoms assessment remotely and reduce waiting times. We also discovered some inconveniences in a telemedicine solution designed for lung cancer patients. We personally do not think they are the best target group for such a solution since the patients are mostly the elderly with little computer experience. Also the disease is severe and requires physical examinations where the telemedicine existing today would not improve the care giving. To all intents and purposes, telemedicine might not be the only and ultimate solution for the problems identified within healthcare for lung cancer patients at Radiumhemmet, but it can work well as a supplement. 3

Abstract:
A design of computer systems, that effectively supports the user, is a major goal within human-computer interaction. To achieve this, we must understand and master several tasks. These tasks concern firstly what to develop and secondly how to develop the system. The design and implementation of effective and efficient user interfaces is a prerequisite for the successful introduction of computer support in the medical domain. We base our work on a fundamental understanding of cognitive aspects of human-computer interaction, as well as on detailed analysis of the specific needs and requirements of the end users, i.e., the medical professionals. This thesis presents several approaches for development of systems for computer-supported work in health care. The solutions described concern vital problem areas: (1) the focus on the work tasks to be performed, (2) the cost of software and the way competition works in a networked world. Solutions to these problems can lead to more usable systems from a user's perspective but may also change the nature of computer applications.

Abstract:
This thesis offers a review of the historical development of telemedicine services in remote health care. It addresses the professional concerns in practising medicine in isolated conditions, and the advances in telecommunications technology since the telephone was invented. It also examines the application of telemedicine in remote environments across the world, such as in indigenous communities, remote industrial work sites and at scientific bases in Antarctica. At its most exotic, a review is offered of the health care for space crews. The literature review highlights a number of concerns about the state of the art knowledge on remote health care services. These concerns are the minimal training requirements of individuals who act as health care practitioners in the remote environment, the additional training requirement upon the advising medical practitioner, and the design of a system for the collection of clinical information from the patient. In response to the above a two year study was conducted. Quantitative and qualitative observation of remote health care consultations was undertaken. The environments studied were simulation cases occurring in the UK and Antarctica, and real cases presenting on oil installations in the North Sea. The study results answer the original concerns about the training levels, data collection and communications components of a remote health care service. In addition, they offer valuable input towards the design of a telemedicine model for remote health care. The telemedicine model is presented as a framework upon which future developments in the field of telemedicine may be approached.

Objetivo: Pernambuco atualmente oferece poucas unidades especializadas em estomatologia. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi desenvolver e verificar a funcionalidade de um sistema de telediagnóstico de doenças orais no estado de Pernambuco. Métodos: Quinze computadores e a mesma quantidade de câmeras digitais foram distribuídos em centros secundários de saúde onde Cirurgiões-Dentistas foram encorajados a visitarem um website e enviarem imagens dos seus pacientes que apresentassem lesões orais para avaliação à distância por dois profissionais com experiência em estomatologia. Um formulário de feedback com opiniões dos dentistas e pacientes também foi enviado. Resultados: Entre 325 pacientes, 313 (96,31%) acharam o procedimento de tirarem fotos de suas bocas bastante confortável, 265 (81,5%) ficaram satisfeitos em ver o interior de suas bocas e 288 (88,62%) acharam o procedimento útil no entendimento dos seus problemas clínicos. Foi estabelecida uma concordância entre os avaliadores e um correto diagnóstico final em 195 (60%) casos. Em 98 (30,16%) casos somente um avaliador acertou a hipótese diagnóstica sugerida à distância. Em 26 (8%) dos casos nenhum avaliador acertou o diagnóstico. 94,44% dos cirurgiões-dentistas consideraram que o auxílio do centro de referência contribuiu para os seus conhecimentos em relação à desordem/doença e acreditaram que o processo de telediagnóstico evita um encaminhamento desnecessário do paciente Conclusão: o telediagnóstico de doenças orais provou ser um modo viável de se evitar algum encaminhamento desnecessário de pacientes.
Objective: Pernambuco, located in Northern Brazil currently offers few oral medicine specialized units. Based upon this, the aim of the present study was to develop and verify the functionality of a telediagnosis system of oral diseases in Pernambuco state. Methods: fifteen computers and the same amount of digital cameras were distributed to secondary health care centers. Dentists were then encouraged to visit a website and send pictures of their patients who presented oral lesions. A feedback form with dentists and patients opinions was also sent. Results: Among 325 patients, 313 (94.3%) found the procedure of recording images of their mouth very comfortable, were happy to view the inside of their mouths 265 (81,5%), and found the procedure generally useful in understanding their clinical problem (288 out of 325 individuals (88%). In 195 (60%) of the instances an agreement between examiners and a correct final diagnosis was established; only one consultant made a correct diagnosis in 104 of the cases (32%); and neither consultants established a correct diagnosis in only 26 cases (8%). 94,44% of dentists considered that the help of a specialized center contributed to the improvement of their knowledge concerning oral diseases and believed that the telediagnosis system avoided unnecessary referrals. Conclusion: telediagnosis of oral diseases proved a feasible way of avoiding some unnecessary referrals.

Abstract:
Para analisar a efetividade da teledermatologia assistencial a partir de fotografias digitais de lesões, avaliou-se a sistematização de aspectos técnicos, morfológicos (maculoso, relevo e palpatório) e de representatividade clínica (típico, moderado e atípico). Verificou-se que o comprometimento da qualidade técnica, a morfologia palpatória e menor tipicidade clínica devem ser suplementados pela descrição das lesões e pelas informações clínicas para aumentar sua acurácia diagnóstica. Desenvolveu-se um sistema de interconsulta dermatológica à distância e constatou-se que seu desempenho diagnóstico foi comparável à consulta presencial, devendo ser consideradas todas as hipóteses diagnósticas elaboradas, além da principal
To analyze the effectiveness of a teledermatology system, the systematization of digital photographs from cutaneous lesions on technical quality, morphologic and clinical aspects was performed. The study showed that unsatisfactory technical quality, palpatory morphology and less typical lesions should be supplemented by clinical description of the lesions and patient information to increase diagnostic accuracy. The dermatologic Internet-based teleconsultation system has diagnostic performance comparable to face-to-face consultation, and all the hypotheses, not only first one, should be considered at virtual diagnostic evaluation

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Utilization of the telemedicine application is an alternative option for paediatric health services without a direct visit to hospitals, especially in pandemic or disease outbreak conditions. The important telemedicine services, especially for paediatric patients, need to be tackled by stakeholders and hospital management teams. This study aimed to investigate the acceptance and barrier in using telemedicine health services of hospitals among paediatric outpatients. Subjects and Method: A systematic review was conducted by searching from Science­Direct and Scopus databases. The keywords were “telemedicine OR patient paediatric”. The in­clusion criteria were open accessed and English-language articles published between 2019 to 2020. The data were reported by PRISMA flow chart. Results: Nine articles met the inclusion criteria. Feasibility and the easiness to use of the application, cost-effectiveness, less travel time, easy access to medicine, and effective health services were the optimal services received by paediatric outpatients in using telemedicine. The limitations of telemedicine services were lack of physical and diagnostic examinations, information for socio-demographic and socioeconomic status, patient insurance coverage, direct care services, and privacy and confidentiality of patients. Conclusion: Not all the conditions of paediatric outpatients receive optimal health services through telemedicine. An innovative approach is needed to improve telemedicine’s available health services, especially for paediatric outpatients who need direct health care without visiting the hospitals. Keywords: telemedicine, paediatric outpatients, health services Correspondence: Sarah Geltri Harahap.

Abstract:
Telemedicine could be one of the solutions for challenges in healthcare, especially in this time of the Covid-19 pandemic. The results of the research about the state of telemedicine services in Slovenia are presented in this article. We found several telemedicine solutions in Slovenian healthcare. Metadata for them were collected. The solutions are placed in groups of telemonitoring, provision of healthcare services by remotely connecting patients with a doctor or healthcare professional and remote cooperation for the patient's treatment between doctors or healthcare professionals who are physically at different locations. The opinions of the research participants regarding the challenges associated with telemedicine services in Slovenia were also collected. They are placed in three main groups: financing, healthcare system and healthcare professionals. Telemedicine is a necessity and the future of Slovenian healthcare services. If a solution is to be applied successfully, business processes must be changed so that a practically useful service can arise from the solution.
