摘要

背景:越来越多地使用远程医疗应用程序提供和提供医疗保健服务。因此,医疗保健从业者对远程医疗政策的认识对于正确实施和利用远程医疗技术至关重要。目的:本研究评估了在门诊诊所工作的医疗保健从业人员的计算机访问和读写水平、远程医疗政策和技术知识、认知和使用远程医疗的意愿。方法:在吉达法赫德国王武装部队医院进行了一项观察性横断面研究。数据是在2021年2月至3月期间通过自行完成的在线调查收集的。结果:在调查的136名医疗从业人员中,我们发现超过一半的人对医院内的远程医疗技术、工具、指导方针、安全和隐私政策有中等到较高的了解。95%的受访者愿意使用远程医疗向大型医疗中心咨询自己的医学或临床专业,并支持在医院进一步实施远程医疗技术。90%的人表示需要在使用远程医疗方面进行持续培训。结论:目前的研究表明,在门诊诊所工作的医护人员对远程医疗的计算机接入和知识不足,但对远程医疗有非常积极的认知和意愿。迫切需要针对远程医疗技术和应用的定向和培训计划,以及当前的政策。

Telemedicine Policy Availability and Awareness: Directions for Improvement
Background: There is a shift towards increased use of telemedicine applications for healthcare service provision and delivery. Thus, awareness among healthcare practitioners of telemedicine policies is critical for proper implementation and utilization of telemedicine technology. Objective: This study assesses the level of computer access and literacy, knowledge of telemedicine policies and technology, perceptions, and willingness to use telemedicine among healthcare practitioners working in ambulatory care clinics. Methods: An observational cross-sectional study was conducted at King Fahad Armed Forces Hospital in Jeddah. Data were collected between February and March 2021 using a self-completed online survey. Results: Of 136 healthcare practitioners surveyed, we found that over half had average to high knowledge about telemedicine technology, tools, guidelines, security, and privacy policies within the hospital. 95% were willing to use telemedicine to consult with large centers in their medical or clinical specialty and support further implementation of telemedicine technology in the hospital. 90% expressed a need for continuous training in the use of telemedicine. Conclusion: The current study shows that there is inadequate computer access and knowledge of telemedicine, but there were very positive perceptions and willingness related to telemedicine among healthcare practitioners working in the ambulatory care clinics. There is an urgent need for orientation and training programs that focus on the technology and applications of telemedicine, as well as current policies.
