Abstract

The integration of telemedicine services into healthcare practices presents both opportunities and challenges, particularly in cancer care. The European eCAN Joint Action aims to provide a framework of recommendations for integrating telemedicine and remote monitoring into healthcare systems. Within the scope of the eCAN JA, a foresight exercise was conducted, which included the completion of a Rapid Literature Review to identify the key factors influencing cancer patients' adoption of telemedicine. The 34 identified key factors informed the design of a dedicated poll. In a different context, we were motivated to understand, from a psychological perspective, how these factors influence cancer patients' adoption of telemedicine and to categorize them. In this work, the 34 key factors were mapped using the COM-B model to gain a deeper understanding of the elements shaping cancer patients' views on adopting telemedicine services. The next step would involve designing targeted actions to enhance the adoption of telemedicine.

探索远程医疗接受：应用COM-B模型来了解癌症患者的观点。

将远程医疗服务整合到医疗保健实践中既带来了机遇，也带来了挑战，特别是在癌症护理方面。欧洲eCAN联合行动旨在为将远程医疗和远程监测整合到医疗保健系统中提供一个建议框架。在eCAN JA的范围内，进行了一项前瞻性工作，其中包括完成一项快速文献综述，以确定影响癌症患者采用远程医疗的关键因素。确定的34个关键因素为专门投票的设计提供了依据。在不同的背景下，我们被激励去理解，从心理学的角度来看，这些因素是如何影响癌症患者采用远程医疗的，并对它们进行分类。在这项工作中，我们使用COM-B模型对34个关键因素进行了映射，以更深入地了解影响癌症患者采用远程医疗服务的因素。下一步将涉及设计有针对性的行动，以加强远程医疗的采用。
