Abstract

Telehealth looks to be a viable tool to meet patients' expectations and requirements during home treatment; however, there are obstacles to overcome. Palliative care has been described as 'high touch' rather than 'high tech', which may restrict healthcare workers' enthusiasm in integrating technological advances into the development and refinement of interventions. As a result, the goal of this integrative review was to map and evaluate existing research on the use of telemedicine and telehealth in palliative care patients during the COVID-19 outbreak. This review was guided using the PRISMA Model and CASP guidelines. A total of 17 articles on the use of telehealth in palliative care satisfied the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the review. This integrative review provided more evidence for the function and application of telehealth in palliative care. It demonstrated the resiliency of individuals in swiftly adjusting to a new system or application and the adaptability of healthcare systems and providers in establishing an alternate means of providing treatment to patients during a crisis.

COVID-19大流行期间远程医疗对姑息治疗患者生活质量的作用:一项综合综述

远程保健看起来是一种可行的工具，可以满足患者在家庭治疗期间的期望和要求;然而，还有一些障碍需要克服。姑息治疗被描述为“高接触”而不是“高科技”，这可能会限制卫生保健工作者将技术进步纳入干预措施的发展和改进的热情。因此，本综合综述的目标是绘制和评估COVID-19疫情期间在姑息治疗患者中使用远程医疗和远程保健的现有研究。本综述以PRISMA模型和CASP指南为指导。共有17篇关于在姑息治疗中使用远程保健的文章符合审查的纳入和排除标准。这一综合综述为远程医疗在姑息治疗中的作用和应用提供了更多的证据。它展示了个人在迅速适应新系统或应用方面的弹性，以及医疗保健系统和提供者在建立危机期间为患者提供治疗的替代方法方面的适应性。
