“…In ambiguous instances, the app provider free of charge offered the further evaluation of such inconclusive cases by an expert panel consisting of three board-certified dermatologists with at least 30 years of professional experience. 5 For quality management, the app provider also continuously conducted a random follow-up of 10% of the patients, which was performed over the phone by trained study nurses using a standardized questionnaire (Table 2). All individuals in this study provided informed consent, in accordance with the ethical principles of the Declaration of Helsinki.…”

Timely and comprehensive dermatological care is a major challenge. Digitized medical consultation offers a possibility to overcome this problem. Here, we studied the diagnostic spectrum and treatment success in teledermatology in the largest cohort to date. Over 12 months, 21 725 individuals received a diagnosis and therapeutic advice using the asynchronous image‐text method. In the context of quality management, 1802 individuals (~10%) of both sexes with a mean age of 33.7 years (SD 15.36) received a follow‐up 3 months after the initial consultation to assess the treatment outcome. Of these, 81.2% did not require a face‐to‐face consultation. Therapeutic efficiency could be ascertained in 83.3% of the patients, whereas 10.9% did not improve, and 5.8% did not provide an information on the course of therapy. Teledermatology is a useful tool in digitalized medicine and complements the classical in‐person dermatological examination, as shown by the high degree of treatment efficacy in this study. Although face‐to‐face consultations can not and should not be completely substituted by teledermatology it reflects a significant contribution to patient care and justifies the further expansion of digital structures in dermatological care.

Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Im Verlauf der COVID-19-Pandemie haben offizielle Schutzmaßnahmen traditionelle Präsenzfortbildungen zum Erliegen gebracht. Für das Fach Orthopädie und Unfallchirurgie (O&U) gibt es bisher bezüglich der Angebots- und Nachfragesituation von E‑Learning per Webinar im Kontext der COVID-19-Pandemie keine belastbaren Zahlen. Fragestellung Das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist die quantitative Beschreibung von Angebot und Nachfrage deutschsprachiger Online-Fortbildungen mit Webinar-Charakter aus der Orthopädie und Unfallchirurgie (O&U) im zeitlichen Zusammenhang mit der COVID-19-Pandemie. Material und Methoden Über gängige Suchmaschinen wurden deutschsprachige, nichtkommerzielle, editierte und wissenschaftlich fundierte Fortbildungen in Form von Webinaren im Bereich O&U von Anbietern mit Sitz in Deutschland identifiziert und interviewt. Ergebnisse Alle 4 eingeschlossenen Anbieter (AO Online Campus, BVOU Study Club, OU TO GO, WebDGU) nahmen an den strukturierten Interviews teil und stimmten einer Offenlegung der Teilnehmerzahlen zu. Das Angebot von Webinaren stieg im zeitlichen Zusammenhang mit der COVID-19-Pandemie an. Ebenfalls erhöhten sich bei allen 4 Anbietern die Teilnehmerzahlen. Diskussion Während OU TO GO und der BVOU Study Club bereits vor der Pandemie auf E‑Learning-Formate spezialisiert waren, wurde das Kursangebot der AO durch den neu etablierten AO online Campus erweitert und WebDGU ganz neu konzipiert. Eine Limitation der Studie ist die exklusive Ausrichtung auf Webinare und nichtkommerzielle Anbieter. Die Ergebnisse lassen auf positive Entwicklungen in O&U im Bereich E‑Learning hoffen.

Since spring 2020, the wide-ranging contact restriction measures in the context of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic have also led to a reduction in physician–patient contacts in the ambulatory care setting. Telemedicine applications will increasingly provide a way to efficiently deliver patient care under infection control measures. In allergology, telemedical as well as digital applications can also significantly facilitate everyday clinical practice. However, the technical and legal hurdles associated with the implementation of digital strategies must be overcome for this to happen. The aim of this article is to provide an intuitive overview of the aspects to be considered in the implementation of telemedicine consultations and to highlight the current state of the framework as well as optimization possibilities and perspectives in allergology. If a structured use is guaranteed, digital and telemedical applications can improve patient care—also in allergology. There is potential to be exploited in many areas, from the remote collection of clinical history, and video consultations, to the discussion of diagnostic findings, disease monitoring, and therapy support. The use of telemedical applications, especially video consultations, has experienced a remarkable acceleration in the context of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The present overview of the legal, technical and professional framework is intended to support the anchoring of digital and telemedical technologies in everyday allergology. However, in order to consolidate these in the future, an agreement is needed regarding professional standards of action as well as a remuneration structure that is permanently defined beyond the current pandemic.
