Resumo
CANCIO, JM et al. Care profile of susceptible patients with osteoporosis by telemedicine visits in the post-COVID-19 era. Rev Osteoporos Metab Miner [online]. 2021, vol.13, n.1, pp.41-46. Epub 17-Maio-2021. ISSN 2173-2345. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s1889-836x2021000100008.
Objetive
Define the profile of the candidate and non-candidate osteoporosis patient for assistance in osteoporosis teleconsultation, in the post-COVID-19 era. Proposal of a management protocol for outpatient follow-up.
Methods
We have carried out a bibliographic review through a systematic search in the Pubmed.gov databases of the available evidence of articles in English and Spanish with an inclusion date until October 2020, following the recommendations of the GRADE system (Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation). Database is aimed at locating and accessing relevant information for this review in an updated way.
Results
The profile of the patient candidate for teleconsultation would be of those who present a history of osteoporosis, previously diagnosed, with treatment and requiring follow-up. COVID-19 has occurred in a context in which the main causes of mortality are chronic diseases and the need to protect against transmission.
Conclusions
We propose a consensus for managing this patient, with differentiated sections for the different stages of the telematic care process. This will help in clinical decision-making and also in the process of follow-up and therapeutic adherence and, therefore, in optimal use of healthcare resources.
