What do medical faculty students think about telehealth?
Objective: We aimed to evaluate medical school students' knowledge and approaches regarding telehealth.
Method: In this descriptive study, an electronic survey was conducted among students attending the Faculties of Medicine at Health Sciences University. The first part of the Form included questions evaluating individual characteristics and telehealth approaches, and the second part included opinions and suggestions regarding telehealth usage topics.
Results: Of 698 participants, 435 (64.9%) students were in the preclinical period. One hundred nine (15.6%) believed they had sufficient knowledge about telehealth while 399 (57.2%) believed that telehealth should be included in medical education. When asked about their opinions on using telehealth in their professional careers, 298 (42.7%) stated that they considered using them. Those who perceived themselves as having sufficient knowledge about telehealth were more inclined to consider using it more in their professional careers (p=0.000). Participants who believed that healthcare services could be provided through telehealth were more likely to think that disease monitoring would be better, patient follow-up quality would improve, unnecessary hospital admissions would decrease (p<0.05).
Conclusions: The majority of medical faculty students lack sufficient knowledge about telemedicine and believe that education on this topic should be included in the medical curriculum. It is suggested that incorporating pre-clinical courses on telemedicine and providing internship opportunities in practical settings would effectively address this gap.
