Teledermatology: Facilitating rapid diagnosis without patient travel
If we are sure of one thing a year after the beginning of the pandemic, it is that COVID-19 has rapidly accelerated the implementation of different technology models that, in certain clinical specialties, had been in development for years, but were only being implemented slowly. That is the situation of Teledermatology (TD), which has played a greater role during the pandemic, in spite of not being new.
World Cancer Day 2021: The importance of maintaining the healthcare system during COVID-19
Today is World Cancer Day, a day that is dedicated to commemorating the fight against this significant disease that, as of today, continues affecting millions of people in the world every year. In Spain, it is estimated that the number of new cancer cases in 2021 will grow to 276,239, and to approximately 30 million around the world in 2040.
How has Telepharmacy provided value during the COVID-19 pandemic?
During the COVID-19 pandemic we have seen how specialized hospital units and services have been obligated to reorganize themselves in order to provide continuity in healthcare, while at the same time trying to avoid new infections among their patients. Providers began to integrate phone calls into their approach to carrying out patient monitoring, as well as using different technological tools.
What is precision medicine and how does technology help to implement it?
The term “precision medicine” has become more prominent because of the advances in healthcare and technology that are enabling a greater understanding of the predisposition to certain diseases and/or ways to prevent them. These advances have allowed for the development of therapies that are directed toward specific patients with more specific disease profiles.
