Abstract

Objective: Parkinson's disease (PD) patients often find it difficult to visit hospitals because of motor symptoms, distance to the hospital, or the absence of caregivers. Telemedicine is one way to solve this problem.

Methods: We surveyed 554 PD patients from eight university hospitals in Korea. The questionnaire consisted of the clinical characteristics of the participants, possible teleconferencing.

Methods: , and preferences for telemedicine.

Results: A total of 385 patients (70%) expressed interest in receiving telemedicine. Among them, 174 preferred telemedicine whereas 211 preferred in-person visits. The longer the duration of disease, and the longer the time required to visit the hospital, the more patients were interested in receiving telemedicine.

Conclusion: This is the first study on PD patients' preferences regarding telemedicine in Korea. Although the majority of patients with PD have a positive view of telemedicine, their interest in receiving telemedicine depends on their different circumstances.

帕金森病患者远程医疗观点调查。

目的：帕金森病（PD）患者常常因为运动症状、距离医院较远或没有护理人员而难以前往医院就诊。远程医疗是解决这一问题的方法之一：我们对韩国 8 家大学医院的 554 名帕金森病患者进行了调查。问卷内容包括参与者的临床特征、可能的远程会诊方式、对远程医疗的偏好以及对远程医疗的需求：结果：共有 385 名患者（70%）接受了远程会诊：共有 385 名患者（70%）表示有兴趣接受远程医疗。其中，174 人首选远程医疗，211 人首选面诊。病程越长、到医院就诊所需时间越长的患者，对接受远程医疗越感兴趣：这是韩国首次就帕金森病患者对远程医疗的偏好进行研究。虽然大多数帕金森病患者对远程医疗持积极态度，但他们对接受远程医疗的兴趣取决于他们的不同情况。
