Stud Health Technol Inform. 2022 May 25:294:951-952. doi: 10.3233/SHTI220636.

Abstract

Telemedicine can be useful for diabetes patients living remotely, especially during pandemic times. We aimed to identify current knowledge of the use of telemedicine for diabetes in Norway by conducting a review of the literature. Telemedicine is mostly beneficial, and it seems that it can be adopted into the usual diabetes care in Norway as a low-cost alternative.
