BACKGROUND
The COVID-19 pandemic greatly impacted traditional health structures, posing new challenges in an unprecedented health crisis. Telemedicine services were implemented in countries with robust digital platforms to reduce hospital attendance while continuing to provide medical care. This study aims to determine how telemedicine services have been used as a tool to ensure the right to health in Latin America during the pandemic.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We conducted a narrative review in which words such as telemedicine, COVID-19, Latin America, access, and right to health, were searched on scientific medical datasets such as PubMed and SciELO. Additionally, we reviewed legislation in the Latin American health domain regarding the administration and transmission of digital data.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS
Several countries have used telemedicine to reduce the saturation of healthcare systems and increase patient access. Issues such as broadband access for low-income populations and adequate legal regulations for transmitting and storing confidential data must be addressed to improve telemedicine use in Latin America.
背景
新冠疫情对传统卫生结构产生了巨大影响，在这场前所未有的卫生危机中带来了新的挑战。在拥有强大数字平台的国家实施了远程医疗服务，以减少医院就诊人数，同时继续提供医疗服务。本研究旨在确定在疫情期间，远程医疗服务如何被用作确保拉丁美洲健康权的一种工具。
材料与方法
我们进行了一项叙述性综述，在诸如PubMed和SciELO等科学医学数据集上搜索了远程医疗、新冠疫情、拉丁美洲、获取和健康权等词汇。此外，我们审查了拉丁美洲卫生领域关于数字数据管理和传输的立法。
结果与结论
几个国家已利用远程医疗来减轻医疗系统的饱和程度并增加患者就诊机会。为改善拉丁美洲远程医疗的使用，必须解决低收入人群的宽带接入以及传输和存储机密数据的适当法律法规等问题。
