Unlocking the Potential of Telemedicine in Epilepsy
Telemedicine proves to be an effective and noninferior alternative to in-person appointments, proving particularly beneficial in overcoming geographic barriers to access. A hybrid model of mixed visit types can help overcome the limitations of conducting a thorough neurologic examination. Younger individuals, those facing long travel distances, and patients with significant others prefer current telemedicine technology. This emphasizes the need for future advancements in more user-friendly and affordable technology tailored toward diverse demographic needs.
