Impact of digital technologies on pediatric practice: realizing potential and overcoming obstacles

Abstract

Digital pediatrics is an innovative field in medicine that actively uses digital technologies for the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of diseases in children. This approach promises to significantly improve the quality and accessibility of pediatric care, allowing healthcare professionals to respond more accurately and efficiently to children’s health. In Russia, this direction is still in its early stages of development, however, there are already individual projects and research that demonstrate its potential. Despite obstacles such as technical limitations and privacy concerns, digital pediatrics represents an important direction for the future of healthcare, and active efforts are being made to realize its capabilities and overcome obstacles.
