摘要

引言:远程医疗是向远程患者提供医疗保健服务。在2019冠状病毒病(新冠肺炎)大流行期间,远程医疗已成为全球提供医疗服务的重要工具。因此,2020年3月,卡塔尔初级卫生保健中心开始在家庭医学诊所进行电话咨询随访预约,而不是传统咨询。鉴于卡塔尔电话咨询的数据有限,我们本研究的目的是调查远程医疗对慢性病患者随访依从性的可能影响。方法:本研究比较了成年慢性病患者在卡塔尔PHCC FM诊所通过电话咨询与2020年4月至11月期间至少三次电话咨询随访的依从性,相比之下,同一组患者在2019年4月至11月期间,在FM诊所接受了至少三次面对面预约随访。将进行一项横断面研究,以调查PHCC电话咨询对患者遵守传统面对面咨询的影响。患者的数据将从卡塔尔27家初级保健中心的健康信息管理处获得。结论:由于卡塔尔PHCC内远程医疗对FM随访患者依从性的有效性研究有限,将患者电话咨询的随访依从性与之前的面对面咨询进行比较将有助于评估患者在FM诊所内提供的护理质量。由于电信易于访问且时效性强,人们相信,如果使用得当,它可能会提高卡塔尔初级保健中心对医生规定的管理和随访预约的依从性和依从性。此外,这项研究将有助于提供建议,指导该组织在新冠肺炎大流行解决后制定适用于PHCC的政策。

The Effect of Telemedicine on Patients’ Compliance in Family Medicine Follow-ups in Qatar
Introduction: Telemedicine is the delivery of health care services to patients distantly. During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, telemedicine has become an essential implement in delivering healthcare services worldwide. Accordingly, in March 2020, the Primary Health Care Centers (PHCCs) in Qatar has started telephone consultation follow-up appointments in Family Medicine (FM) clinics instead of conventional consultation. Given the limited data about telephone consultations in Qatar, our aim of this study is to investigate the possible impact of telemedicine on chronic disease patients’ follow-up compliance. Methods: This study compares the compliance of adult patients with chronic diseases following-up within FM clinics in Qatar's PHCC through telephone consultations with a minimum of three telephone consultations ordered between April to November 2020, in comparison to the compliance of the same group of patients to their prior face-to-face follow-up consultations in FM clinics with a minimum of three face-to-face ordered follow up appointments between April to November 2019. A cross-sectional study will be carried out to investigate the effect of telephone consultation in PHCC on patients’ compliance with reference to conventional face-to-face consultation. Patients’ data will be received from Health Information Management in twenty-seven PHCCs in Qatar. Conclusion: Due to the limited studies on the effectiveness of telemedicine on patient compliance in FM follow-ups within Qatar's PHCC, comparing patients’ follow-up compliance with telephone consultations to their prior face-to-face consultations would be helpful in assessing patients’ quality of care delivering within FM clinics. With telecommunication being easily accessible and time-efficient, it is believed, when used correctly, it might improve compliance and adherence to the management prescribed by the physician and follow-up appointments in Qatar's PHCC. In addition, this study will help in providing recommendations that could guide the organization on forming policies to be applied in PHCCs after the resolution of the COVID-19 pandemic.
