Are patients satisfied with online video consultations for assessing their hand disorder? - 15/02/24
Abstract |
Objectives |
The aim was to evaluate patient satisfaction with online video consultations in assessing hand disorder.
Material and methods |
This prospective study included patients who attended a video consultation, either as an initial meeting to assess the need for further evaluation or treatment or as an early postoperative follow-up consultation. After the consultation, they completed a satisfaction questionnaire. Regression models were used to reveal determinants of patient satisfaction.
Results |
We included 100 patients, with a mean age of 55 years (range 17–81 years). 95% were satisfied or very satisfied. The main reasons for choosing this form of consultation were shorter travel and wait times. Age, gender and educational level did not determine satisfaction. Significant factors for dissatisfaction were insufficient video and sound quality.
Conclusion |
Online video consultation in hand surgery is a valuable alternative to in-clinic appointments for all age groups. However, it is crucial to ensure adequate video and audio quality.
