The COVID pandemic inherently impacts clinical activity in Dermatological practices throughout all sectors. Under these circumstances, our service has implemented teledermatology in order to act both as a filter for reducing in-hospital admittance or face-to-face interactions, and as a straightforward solution to solve the issues faced by patients and family doctors within our area. Live consultations rely on the resident physician's capacity to take a detailed patient history in the limited time allotted, while the subsequent case-discussion with the leading-physician has good didactic value. The establishment of a quality international collaboration through teledermatology would further facilitate a more accurate and faster diagnosis, even for patients traveling for business or tourism.
新冠疫情对皮肤科各领域的临床活动都产生了内在影响。在这种情况下,我们的服务部门实施了远程皮肤病学,以起到减少住院或面对面接触的筛选作用,并作为解决我们所在地区患者和家庭医生所面临问题的直接方案。实时会诊依赖住院医师在有限时间内详细了解患者病史的能力,而随后与主治医生的病例讨论具有很好的教学价值。通过远程皮肤病学建立高质量的国际合作将进一步促进更准确、更快速的诊断,即使对于因商务或旅游出行的患者也是如此。
