Addressing the inherent uncertainty in medical diagnostics, this model enhances traditional type-1 fuzzy logic by incorporating ambiguity into linguistic variables and utilizing type-2 fuzzy if-then rules. The system is trained to minimize diagnostic error in asthma disease identification. Applied to a dataset comprising eight medical entities from asthma patients, the model demonstrates substantial accuracy improvements. Numerical computations validate the system, showing a decrease in error rate from 1.445 to 0.03, indicating a significant enhancement in diagnostic precision. These results underscore the potential of our model in medical diagnostic problems, providing a novel and effective tool for tackling the complexities of asthma diagnosis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100268,"journal":{"name":"Clinical eHealth","volume":"7 ","pages":"Pages 15-26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2588914124000017/pdfft?md5=305cae56b1c8d6a5f0ff62a1ec33c6ad&pid=1-s2.0-S2588914124000017-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139454813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of these technologies, and as the world navigates beyond the crisis, it is essential to assess the extent of utilization of telehealth and telemedicine. This review study aims to assess the extent to which teleservices have been implemented worldwide across different continents. Peer-reviewed telehealth and telemedicine articles were reviewed across Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library and Pubmed/Medline databases. The exclusion criteria comprised all articles published before 1 December 2019, any other databases, duplicates, and grey literature. The inclusion criteria for this study encompassed articles published on or after December 1, 2019. This timeframe allowed us to focus on the pandemic and post-pandemic era. A total of 381 publications were identified for inclusion, which were screened based on reviewing the titles, abstracts and full-text content down to 102 relevant articles. Utilization trends were identified amongst the different countries across the continents, and these were classified into advanced, developed, developing and emerging adoption stages. The respective characteristics utilized in differentiating these adoption stages were identified, encompassing the inclusivity of teleservices in administration, disease diagnosis, treatment, patient follow-ups, pharmacy services and electronic health records transversely. According to this review, of the countries surveyed (n = 77), (n = 27) 13.8 % are at an advanced adoption stage, (n = 20) 10.3 % are at a developed level, (n = 24) 12.3 % are at the developed stage, and (n = 6) 3 % are at the emerging stage, as percentages of all the countries in the world (N = 195). In conclusion, this study demonstrated the extent to which various nations have adopted telehealth and telemedicine from the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic to 2023.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100268,"journal":{"name":"Clinical eHealth","volume":"7 ","pages":"Pages 5-14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2588914123000333/pdfft?md5=a0a94050b8b44a3dbfbfe4413e437bb3&pid=1-s2.0-S2588914123000333-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138620282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
