Abstract

Information and Communication Technologies applied to health care and advances in sensor and data transmission technology allowed tele-medicine based programs of care also for patients with respiratory diseases. Different sensors, transmission devices and interventions are used in tele-medicine for some indications. Patients suffering from Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, asthma, neuromuscular diseases, ventilator assisted individuals and those undergoing pulmonary rehabilitation programs may benefit from this approach. The legal problems are still unsolved. Economic advantages for health care systems, though potentially high, are still poorly investigated. Despite the hopes, we need more evidence before this modality can be considered as a real progress in the management of patients with respiratory diseases. On one hand, these technologies can improve the care of patients with difficult access to services, particularly those in rural/remote areas, on the other hand, there is the risk that they will be used only to reduce standard services in health systems of developed countries.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 May 2017.
All research outputs
#7,200,862
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Multidisciplinary Respiratory Medicine
#100
of 307 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#107,069
of 324,220 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Multidisciplinary Respiratory Medicine
#4
of 9 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 71st percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 307 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 11.3. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 67% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 324,220 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 66% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 9 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 5 of them.
