Telemedicina impacto na relacao medico paciente no que tange a fisiopatologia a humanizacao e a etica (Atena Editora)

Abstract

Medicine, as a health profession, is a science in constant development that has the role of treating the human being in its physical, mental and social aspects. In this context, telemedicine is a way to facilitate this access. Telemedicine is the modality of medical care in which information and communication technologies are used to promote remote care. In order to review its impact on the doctor-patient relationship, a literature review on the subject was carried out. Telemedicine, then, showed promise in increasing the coverage of health promotion, since it enables remote pathophysiological care, albeit limited, and the human reception of a conversation, more than between doctor and patient, but between human beings. Ethical issues still surround the practice. Because this type of care is considered innovative, bioethical discussions are generated, assisted by the World Medical Association, which values ​​​​maintaining autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence and justice in the practice of telemedicine, principles that govern the inherent ethics of the profession. Therefore, as an ethical exercise that is expressly authorized or not prohibited, telemedicine must be encouraged as a parallel path to traditional medicine.
