Although some centres have successfully integrated remote clinics into their paediatric urological practice, for many, remote clinics have developed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. One UK-based institution has integrated remote clinics in their practice for over two years and has developed guidelines considering which conditions may be suitable for remote consultations. These guidelines have been appraised by the European Association of Urology Young Academic Urologists paediatric working group. Through practical experience and anticipated difficulties, we have discussed considerations that paediatric urology departments should ponder when integrating remote clinics into their practice as we move forward from the pandemic.
尽管一些中心已成功地将远程诊所纳入其儿科泌尿外科实践中,但对许多机构而言,远程诊所是因新冠疫情而发展起来的。一家英国机构已在其实践中整合远程诊所两年多,并制定了关于哪些病症可能适合远程会诊的指南。这些指南已由欧洲泌尿外科学会青年学术泌尿外科医生儿科工作组评估。通过实践经验和预期困难,我们讨论了在疫情之后儿科泌尿外科部门将远程诊所纳入其实践时应考虑的因素。
