Telemedicine brings several benefits to patients, healthcare providers, and the wider society, including reductions in the need for hospitalizations or readmissions, as well as in overall healthcare costs and the length of inpatient stay. In addition, these services may provide psychological benefits to patients, including excellent satisfaction and medication adherence. The present study aimed to investigate an in-house-developed otorhinolaryngologic remote diagnostic system (mobile app). The basis of the comparison was the incidence between the diagnoses and therapies made by remote diagnosticians and on-site specialists based on static images and videos captured by a smartphone otoscope device. In the study, 103 patients were involved. After registering demographic data, the telemedicine software was evaluated by comparing the matching of physically established diagnoses and/or therapies with remotely established diagnoses and/or therapies. The most remarkable result was in concordance with the diagnoses, with 79 matches identified of the 103 cases examined; the rate of the matching cases was 76.7% (95% CI: 68.5-84.9%). These results support that telemedicine-based otorhinolaryngological remote diagnostics could play a significant role in future healthcare.
远程医疗给患者、医疗服务提供者和更广泛的社会带来了诸多益处，包括减少住院或再次住院的需求，以及降低总体医疗成本和缩短住院时间。此外，这些服务可能会给患者带来心理上的益处，包括高度的满意度和药物依从性。本研究旨在调查一种内部开发的耳鼻咽喉远程诊断系统（移动应用程序）。比较的依据是远程诊断医生和现场专家根据智能手机耳镜设备拍摄的静态图像和视频做出的诊断和治疗之间的发生率。该研究纳入了103名患者。在记录了人口统计学数据后，通过比较实际做出的诊断和/或治疗与远程做出的诊断和/或治疗的匹配情况，对远程医疗软件进行了评估。最显著的结果是在诊断方面，在103例检查病例中确定了79例匹配；匹配病例的比例为76.7%（95%置信区间：68.5 - 84.9%）。这些结果表明，基于远程医疗的耳鼻咽喉远程诊断在未来医疗保健中可能发挥重要作用。
