在这篇文章中提出了一种理论上的理解，为什么一些人与慢性阻塞性肺疾病（COPD）经历了“安心”时，一个新的远程医疗服务引入到社区呼吸服务（CRS）。这是基于对接受服务的COPD患者进行深入，定性，情境访谈的分析。远程保健通过两个机制带来了心灵的平静：使与保健专业人员的接触合法化，并增加了病人对管理其病情的信心。当家庭是主要的健康空间时，远程医疗的引入可以在一定程度上改变情感和身体体验，这对COPD患者来说意义重大。在设计或委托服务时，应考虑技术为长期条件下的人提供“安心”的过程。(C)2013爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
A theoretical understanding of why some people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) experienced 'peace of mind' when a new telehealth service was introduced into a community respiratory service (CRS) is presented in this article. This is based on analysis of in-depth, qualitative, situated interviews with COPD patients who were receiving the service. Telehealth brought peace of mind through two mechanisms: legitimising contact with health professionals and increased patient confidence in the management of their condition. When the home is the primary health space, the introduction of telehealth can modify emotional and bodily experiences to an extent that is significant for people with COPD. The process by which technology can provide 'peace of mind' to people with long term conditions should be taken into account when designing or commissioning a service. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
