Requirements and attitudes toward eHealth content in human medicine studies: A cross-sectional study to improve the curriculum

The findings highlight substantial variability in the perception of eHealth teaching and reveal significant associations between perceived knowledge, confidence, and readiness for professional application. Participants expressed a clear need for broader and more structured digital health education. Core topics identified for future curricular integration include digital documentation systems, telemedicine, data protection, and the use of AI in healthcare. Comprehensive, longitudinal integration of eHealth across core and elective curricula is essential to adequately prepare future physicians for an increasingly digitalized healthcare system.

Abstract

The findings highlight substantial variability in the perception of eHealth teaching and reveal significant associations between perceived knowledge, confidence, and readiness for professional application. Participants expressed a clear need for broader and more structured digital health education. Core topics identified for future curricular integration include digital documentation systems, telemedicine, data protection, and the use of AI in healthcare. Comprehensive, longitudinal integration of eHealth across core and elective curricula is essential to adequately prepare future physicians for an increasingly digitalized healthcare system.
