Telemedicine is an underused instrument along our healthcare systems. It's a technological tool that optimizes resources, save money, expands our capacities, decongests our traditional medical services and is an invaluable help for teaching and research. The COVID-19 pandemic is forcing us to expand its use and it gives us the opportunity to design an appropriate implementation.
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new idea: local inhibition of contractility without necrosis. It's potential usefulness in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy treatment is discussed and 2 pharmacological models, administrating botulinum toxin and wortmannin directly in the myocardium are disclosed.
La telemedicina es una herramienta subutilizada en nuestros sistemas de atención sanitaria. Se trata de un recurso tecnológico que optimiza los servicios de salud, ahorra recursos, expande la capacidad de atención especializada a lugares remotos, descongestiona servicios médicos tradicionales y es un instrumento invaluable de enseñanza e investigación. La pandemia por COVID-19 nos obliga a extender su uso y supone una oportunidad para diseñar una adecuada implementación.
