Published studies on telemedicine by any surgical specialty and during any part of the patient care pathway in LMICs were included. All study types, including observational and experimental studies, qualitative, quantitative, and mixedmethod studies, were included. Case re...
We assessed changes in outpatient visit volume by capturing weekly rates per 1000 enrollees of telemedicine, in-person, and total visits over the study period. For each state, during the final 4 weeks of the study period (May 20 to June 16), we calculated the percent of total weekly visits...
physical distance, allowing for proper clinical monitoring and early detection of infections like COVID-19. It helps in reducing infection rates among medical staff and overcomes challenges such as insufficient beds and protective equipment during pandemics by utilizing digital communications for treatment....
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study that described the EMS and Emergency Department utilization of patients housed in disaster shelters during a 12 day period following Hurricane Florence.

The author anticipated lower-cost wireless systems with improved data transfer rates and the use of intelligent agents in future designs of telemedicine systems. A similar overview of design analysis of mobile and wireless systems in telemedicine was presented in [25]. This article described three ...
