[TeleCOVID Hessen: implications for the development of new indication areas].

Background: During the SARS-CoV‑2 pandemic, the TeleCOVID application was developed in Hessen to connect the intensive care units via telemedicine. After successful implementation, the application should be extended to other indication areas in intensive care medicine.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate other indications for which the application can be used and which technical requirements are associated with this.
