Telemedicine Systems and Mobile Health Systems

Telemedicine refers to public health services provided across distances to individuals who wish to maintain their health. It encompasses a variety of medical activities, including disease diagnosis, treatment, prevention, continuing medical education, and medical research and evaluation. Mobile health, on the other hand, involves using mobile communication technologies such as personal digital assistant (PAD), mobile phone, and satellite communication to deliver healthcare services and information. Specifically, mobile health primarily relies on health-related applications on mobile terminal systems and wearable medical monitoring devices. As society advances and people’s living standards and levels of informatization improve, the development of telemedicine and mobile health has become increasingly mature. This approach breaks the constraints of time and space, surpassing the traditional singular service model of healthcare. It significantly enhances the efficiency and quality of medical services, making it one of the key directions for the future development of the healthcare industry.
