Article Synopsis
- The COVID-19 pandemic led to an increase in telemedicine use for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) management, prompting a review of the relevant literature from 2017 to 2023.
- A total of 31 studies were analyzed, with most indicating that telemedicine provides satisfactory care, although some found that the quality could be lower than in-person visits, especially for older patients or those with limited tech skills.
- The review highlights the need for more robust studies to determine the most effective telemedicine practices and to address accessibility issues for certain populations.
