在 COVID-19 大流行爆发之前，大多数炎症性肠病患者的护理都是面对面提供的。此后，胃肠病学护理的实践迅速发生了变化，远程医疗逐渐成为向患者提供医疗护理的重要工具，同时保持社交距离和保存个人防护装备。本文深入了解炎症性肠病专家过去和当前的实践，并分享将远程医疗纳入临床实践的监管、财务和实际考虑因素。政府和其他付款人对远程医疗的持续支持以及提供远程客观患者数据的持续创新将有助于在当前大流行消退后很长一段时间内维持远程医疗的使用。
Before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the majority of care for inflammatory bowel disease patients was provided in-person. The practice of gastroenterology care has since rapidly transformed, with telemedicine emerging as an essential tool to provide medical care to patients while maintaining social distancing and conserving personal protective equipment. This article provides insight into past and current practices among inflammatory bowel disease specialists and shares regulatory, financial and practical considerations for incorporating telemedicine into clinical practice. Continued government and other payer support for telemedicine and ongoing innovation to provide remote objective patient data will help to sustain the use of telemedicine long after the current pandemic subsides.
