| مستخلص: | The use of video appointments (VAs) increased significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study investigated the evolution of VA utilisation in Finland using data from two surveys conducted in 2021 (40 responses) and 2023 (30 responses). Our primary aim was to identify patient groups best suited for VAs. Respondents were either neurologists or neurologists-in-training. Our findings suggest that patients with epilepsy or headaches are most suitable for VAs. VAs were primarily used for follow-up visits during both survey periods, but their application for first visits decreased from 68.20% in 2021 to 27.80% in 2023. Healthcare professionals' concerns about data protection have diminished over time, but there is still need for enhanced training in the use of remote applications. Future research should focus on validating the cost-effectiveness, data security and timeliness of VAs. |
