Abstract:
The number of patients with chronic conditions and multi-morbidities is increasing, addressing a need for patient-centred care. The research project Patients and Professionals in Productive Teams aims to study patient-centred teamwork for this patient group. This paper presents an evaluation of a telemedicine service for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patientsrun with a patient-centred care model. Observations and interviews were made to study the technology use and information flow. The results showed that the technology worked well in a patient-centred care perspective, even though the system was a standalone system for telemedicine services. The information in the system was only available for professionals providing the telemedicine services and was not shared with other health care providers.
