The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has changed the way we engage patient care, with a move toward telemedicine-based health care encounters. Teleneurology is now being rapidly embraced by neurologists in clinics and hospitals nationwide but for many, this paradigm of care is unfamiliar. Exposure to telemedicine in neurology training programs is scarce despite previous calls to expand teleneurology education. Programs that provide a teleneurology curriculum have demonstrated increased proficiency, accuracy, and post-training utilization among their trainees. With the current changes in health care, broad incorporation of teleneurology education in resident and fellow training after this pandemic dissipates will only serve to improve trainee preparedness for independent practice.
2019 年冠状病毒病大流行改变了我们参与患者护理的方式，朝着基于远程医疗的医疗保健服务转变。远程神经病学现在正在全国的诊所和医院中被神经科医生迅速接受，但对许多人来说，这种护理模式并不熟悉。尽管之前曾呼吁扩大远程神经病学教育，但在神经病学培训计划中接触远程医疗的机会却很少。提供远程神经病学课程的计划表明，其学员在培训后的专业水平、准确性和培训后使用率都有所提高。随着目前医疗保健的变化，在这场大流行消退后，将远程神经病学教育广泛纳入住院医师和研究员培训中，将有助于提高学员对独立实践的准备程度。
