M-Health Telemedicine and Telepresence in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery: An Innovative Prehospital Healthcare Concept in Structurally Weak Areas
Abstract
MHealth (Mobile Health) is an innovative prehospital healthcare concept in emergency medicine. This technology offers the transfer of medical knowledge using mobile devices such as smart phone applications or real-time communication methods. Surgically active dentists in structurally weak areas can be confronted in case of an emergency to situations, that require the guidance of a remote experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeon or an emergency doctor to treat potentially life-threatening conditions as early as possible. Thus, an interconnection of competence centres using real-time video communication is an appropriate technology. In the literature, various studies have been conducted to prove the huge potential of MHealth. The aim of this manuscript is to present a comprehensive MHealth concept for oral and maxillofacial surgery as well as for dentistry in the context of emergencies, something that is so far missing from the literature. The developed framework for using MHealth in oral and maxillofacial surgery opens up a new perspective of patient-centered care.
