Read about the results from Teledi@log – telerehabilitation of heart patients

by

The Steering Committee for the Teledi@log project wanted to convey the results from the project to a wider audience in order that the successes of the project can generate inspiration for implementation of tele-rehabilitation programs for heart patients in collaboration between cardiac units and health centers in Denmark. Our results have shown that if we plan an individual rehabilitation for heart patients combined with the use of new technology, we can get more heart patients to actively participate in rehabilitation. Heart Patients express that tele-rehabilitation is an equally good alternative as rehabilitation at a hospital or in a municipal health center. We hope that the results of the project can be an inspiration for future cardiac rehabilitation in Denmark and internationally.

We will recommend you to see a video of the Teledilog project at YouTube, and read about the results from the Teledi@log project at www.teledialog.dk.

Dansk-Amerikansk netværk sætter ny global forskningsdagsorden indenfor telesundhed

by

Ved at arbejde mere internationalt om fremtidens telesundhed vil vi kunne få flere patienter i kliniske studier, opnå hurtigere resultater om patientnære, kliniske og sundhedsøkonomiske effekter af en given telesundhedsteknologisk løsning. Målet er en hurtigere udbredelse af telesundhedsteknologier og programmer for at skabe lighed for sundhed, udnytte ressourcer bedst muligt i sundhedsvæsenet, og gøre effektiv brug af forskningsmidler i en international sammenhæng, påpeger det dansk-amerikanske forskningsnetværk ”Transatlantic Telehealth Research Network (TTRN)”. TTRN har netop publiceret en 12-punkts forskningsagenda i det anerkendte videnskabelige tidskrift Journal of Medical Internet for at skubbe på forskningen.

Personalized Telehealth in the Future: A Global Research Agenda

by

As telehealth plays an even greater role in global health care delivery, it will be increasingly important to develop a strong evidence base of successful, innovative telehealth solutions that can lead to scalable and sustainable telehealth programs. This paper has two aims: (1) to describe the challenges of promoting telehealth implementation to advance adoption and (2) to present a global research agenda for personalized telehealth within chronic disease management…
