二十多年来，远程医疗技术一直被视为解决公平、具有成本效益和高效的卫生服务提供挑战的解决方案。通过远程医疗调节医疗保健的感官维度和医患关系的方式可能是远程医疗成功、失败或意外后果的重要因素。在本文中，我们回顾了社会研究中的相关文献，为远程医疗的感官维度提供了见解。除了考虑健康和疾病社会学领域开展的重要相关工作外，我们还结合了其他学科和领域的观点和研究，我们认为这些观点和研究有助于该主题学术的发展。我们认为，当医生、患者和其他医护人员实施远程医疗时，感官判断在某种程度上已成为传感器的感知。一如既往地看待医疗保健从业者和患者，以及已经存在的肉体代码、空间、地点、情感的数字数据组合，要求某些类型的身体工作和数据感知，为未来远程医疗和其他数字健康技术的研究构成了一种富有成效的理论方法。
Telemedicine technologies have been presented as solutions to the challenges of equitable, cost-effective and efficient health service provision for over two decades. The ways in which the sensory dimensions of medical care and the doctor-patient relationship are mediated via telemedicine can be important contributors to the success, failure or unintended consequences of telemedicine. In this article, we present a review of the relevant literature in social research that provides insights into the sensory dimensions of telemedicine. In addition to considering important relevant work undertaken in the sociology of health and illness, we incorporate perspectives and research from other disciplines and fields that we believe can contribute to the development of scholarship on this topic. We contend that when doctors, patients and other healthcare workers enact telemedicine, sensory judgements have become, in part, a sensing of sensors. Viewing healthcare practitioners and patients as always and already digital data assemblages of flesh-code-space-place-affect-senses, demanding certain kinds of body work and data sense-making, constitutes a productive theoretical approach for future enquiries into telemedicine and other digital health technologies.
