TELEMEDICINE IN ALLERGIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT

Telemedicine (TM) is the use of communication technologies for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up to improve the health of individuals and communities. Electronic health (e-health), on the other hand, is a general term that refers to the support of healthcare services with information and communication technologies. Telehealth and TM are included within e-health. Although the origins of TM date back to the 1960s, its use became rapidly widespread with the COvID-19 pandemic. There are basically three different modes of application: synchronous, asynchronous, and remote monitoring. Synchro-nous consultations can be conducted either directly with the patient or in a facilitated manner through two different methods.
