Highlights
- Telemedicine means “distant medicine.”
- Telemedicine promotes the delivery of high-quality healthcare to distant or remote locations, as well as patients who are really in need of it.
- The increasing affordability of technology, as well as a shortage of medical personnel, makes it clear that telemedicine could be a solution to healthcare delivery. Telemedicine is also important in medical education.
- Studies have shown that telemedicine contributes immensely to medical education, being almost as effective as conventional education methods.
- The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused a great disruption in medical education.
- Educators in medical institutions are required to attend promptly to students as well as patients.
- The global pandemic has revealed that there is a great need for physicians. Logistical and practical challenges have been presented by this pandemic considering that asymptomatic students may spread the virus or acquire it in the course of training.
- This article discusses the application of telemedicine in medical education, educational practices during the COVID-19 outbreak specifically the use of telehealth during clinical rotation, and the future of telemedicine in education.
