Collection details

It's TELEMEDICINE TIME! The present Covid-19 pandemic offers us some fascinating and real-time opportunities to co-create and better understand decisions that should have taken a long time ago but were postponed or rejected while the situation was more beneficial than now.

As you might know, telemedicine refers to a variety of health-related services and practices for caring for patients remotely via electronic information and telecommunication technologies. With accelerating adoption of telehealth technologies by healthcare professionals worldwide, we are currently building a significant shift in mindset. In addition, this change creates a new communication culture among patients offering more trust, comfort and acceptance.

So, Jan Beger and I decided to make this ScienceOpen collection of various articles on the topic of telemedicine and eHealth and how emerging technologies have been applied in response to the Covid-19 pandemic.
