          Abstract

          Abstract: The objective of this article is to critically analyze the idea of the dehumanization of nursing care due to the increasing technologization and technicalization. To examine this idea, it proposes a philosophical analysis of the concepts of technique, technology, nursing care, and dehumanization, establishing three thematic axes: the dehumanization of care, care, and technique as an ontological conception of the human. It is based on philosophical references regarding technique, especially the fable of Hyginus in the work of Heidegger, who offers an interpretation that seeks to integrate technique and care as part of a symbiotic ontology. In conclusion, it is highlighted that technique and care are not opposite concepts: on the contrary, both are constitutive of the human nature and, therefore, blaming technique and technology exclusively for dehumanization is certainly contradictory.

          Resumen: El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar críticamente la idea de la deshumanización del cuidado de enfermería debido a la creciente tecnologización y tecnificación. Para examinar esta afirmación se propone un análisis filosófico de los conceptos de técnica, tecnología, cuidado de enfermería y deshumanización, estableciendo tres ejes temáticos: la deshumanización del cuidado, el cuidado y la técnica como concepción ontológica de lo humano. Se parte de referentes filosóficos de la técnica, en especial, la fábula de Higinio en la obra de Heidegger, quien ofrece una interpretación que busca integrar la técnica y el cuidado como parte de una ontología simbiótica. Como conclusión se destaca que la técnica y el cuidado no son conceptos opuestos: por el contrario, ambos son constitutivos de la naturaleza humana, por lo tanto, culpar exclusivamente a la técnica y a la tecnología de la deshumanización resulta ciertamente contradictorio.

              The worldwide impact of telemedicine during COVID-19: current evidence and recommendations for the future

              During the COVID-19 pandemic, telemedicine has emerged worldwide as an indispensable resource to improve the surveillance of patients, curb the spread of disease, facilitate timely identification and management of ill people, but, most importantly, guarantee the continuity of care of frail patients with multiple chronic diseases. Although during COVID-19 telemedicine has thrived, and its adoption has moved forward in many countries, important gaps still remain. Major issues to be addressed to enable large scale implementation of telemedicine include: (1) establishing adequate policies to legislate telemedicine, license healthcare operators, protect patients’ privacy, and implement reimbursement plans; (2) creating and disseminating practical guidelines for the routine clinical use of telemedicine in different contexts; (3) increasing in the level of integration of telemedicine with traditional healthcare services; (4) improving healthcare professionals’ and patients’ awareness of and willingness to use telemedicine; and (5) overcoming inequalities among countries and population subgroups due to technological, infrastructural, and economic barriers. If all these requirements are met in the near future, remote management of patients will become an indispensable resource for the healthcare systems worldwide and will ultimately improve the management of patients and the quality of care.
