“…Widespread acceptance of telehealth has been limited by a combination of technical and reimbursement challenges. Before the pandemic telehealth uptake was primarily within radiology [2] , psychiatry [3] , and cardiology, and the American Medical Association data suggest that immunologists, gastroenterologists, and obstetricians and gynecologists use telemedicine the least [4] . Many restrictions have recently been lifted with clear evidence of increased uptake across specialties and jurisdictions during the COVID-19 pandemic [ 5 , 6 ].…”

Like many areas of medicine, vascular surgery has been transformed by the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) pandemic. Public health precautions to minimize disease transmission have led to reduced attendance at hospitals and clinics in elective and emergency settings; fewer face-to-face and hands-on clinical interactions; and increased reliance on telemedicine, virtual attendance, investigations, and digital therapeutics. However, a “silver lining” to the COVID-19 pandemic may be the mainstream acceptance and acceleration of telemedicine, remote monitoring, digital health technology, and three-dimensional technologies, such as three-dimensional printing and virtual reality, by connecting health care providers to patients in a safe, reliable, and timely manner, and supplanting face-to-face surgical simulation and training. This review explores the impact of these changes in the delivery of vascular surgical care.

“…They would contribute to a significant improvement in the quality of the healthcare offered to patients (e.g. through a reduction in waiting times for diagnosis and treatment, the sharing of skills, the omission of redundant examinations and the avoidance of unnecessary transfers [25,39]). In addition, it was predicted that the use of tele-expertise in current medical practice might appreciably reduce the production costs of certain medical activities [19,27].…”

This contribution focuses on the medical applications of new information and communication technologies (NICTs). We discuss the paradoxical nature of the spread of these technologies, related to the discrepancy between the promises held out by their use in a healthcare system searching for new mechanisms of coordination and their actual implementation, involving a series of experiments that to date have been short-lived. We then argue that solving this paradox requires understanding the complexity of the interaction process between NICTs and organisational changes. Thus while NICTs can facilitate the restructuring of provider networks, one of the principal challenges facing healthcare systems, they also reveal the tensions engendered by some new formal coordination mechanisms.

“…It can be conducted in real time, as with video conferencing, or asynchronously, for the transmission of text or graphic data, auditory verbal information, still images, short video clips and full-motion video. 17 The clinical applications of telemedicine are numerous, including radiology, 18,19 pathology, 20 general consulting, 21,22 psychiatry, 23 and the potential to develop a 'virtual hospital'. 24 The investment of intellectual and technological capital into rural communities will build a culture of learning and research within these communities.…”

The key feature of the Greater Murray Clinical School model is the attachment of students to patients. Students follow their patients through the health care system, in contrast to the standard approach where students are attached to doctors or speciality based clinical units. The patient/student coupling occurs at the primary care level, which mostly but not exclusively will occur in the GP's office. Students anchor their knowledge by seeing the natural progression of common illnesses, the impact of behavioural aspects on health and disease, and by experiencing continuity of care. Along their path they develop good problem solving skills and learn to understand the health care system they will become part of. The main obstacle in teaching a medical undergraduate curriculum in a rural setting is that large geographical distances separate students, teachers and resources. Consequently, information technology will play an important role in terms of delivery of the GMCS curriculum. Moreover, there is potential for flow-on benefits to the community following integration of new information technology into the local health infrastructure.
