Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the role of remote patient monitoring with respect to wound care in terms of improving patient outcomes and facilitating the overall care process.

Methods: The systematic review was conducted from July 2 to October 15, 2023, and comprised literature search on PubMed using key words, including "tele-monitoring", "remote patient monitoring", "telehealth", "telemedicine", "wound care", "home health monitoring", and "selfmonitoring". To ensure thorough and robust findings, unpublished studies and solitary abstracts were excluded. To include current research and insights from the modern era, only human studies published from year 2008 to 2023 were included.

Results: Of the 51 studies identified, 48(94.11%) were reviewed. After excluding 32(66.66%) irrelevant studies, 16(33.33%) were included for analysis, with 15(93.75%) highlighting favourable results of remote patient monitoring and its efficacy in wound care.

Conclusions: Tele-monitoring systems have proven effective with respect to wound care, improving healthcare quality and reducing unnecessary hospital visits through online physician-patient communication. Future research should explore strategies for optimising remote patient monitoring to sustain advancements in wound care practices in Pakistan.

远程病人监护在伤口护理中的有效性：一项系统综述。

目的：评价远程患者监护在伤口护理中改善患者预后和促进整体护理过程中的作用。方法：系统评价于2023年7月2日至10月15日进行，检索PubMed文献，关键词为“远程监护”、“远程患者监护”、“远程医疗”、“远程医疗”、“伤口护理”、“家庭健康监测”、“自我监测”。为了确保研究结果的全面和可靠，未发表的研究和单独的摘要被排除在外。为了包括当前的研究和现代的见解，只包括了2008年至2023年发表的人类研究。结果：在纳入的51项研究中，48项（94.11%）被回顾。在排除32项（66.66%）不相关研究后，纳入16项（33.33%）研究进行分析，其中15项（93.75%）强调了患者远程监护的良好结果及其在伤口护理中的疗效。结论：远程监测系统在伤口护理、提高医疗质量和通过在线医患沟通减少不必要的医院就诊方面已被证明是有效的。未来的研究应该探索优化远程患者监测的策略，以维持巴基斯坦伤口护理实践的进步。
