Telemedicine is rather new activity covering various approaches in order to fulfill the main task which can be expressed in more comprehensive words such as "remote medicine" or "medicine on distance". One of definitions of telemedicine given by the European Commission for Telemedicine says that "telemedicine is fast access to distributed medical expert knowledge using telemedicine and information technologies regardless of actual location of a patient or relevant information". The first connection has been established with Zagreb, Croatia in September by means of PHAROS. In October 1996 the Institute of Pathology with the Radiology and Ophthalmology Clinics of University hospital of Sarajevo has joined the experimental project "SHARED" (a telemedicine initiative to support remote health care structure, proposed by the San Raffaele International Biomedical Science Park with Stato Maggiore della diffesa and European Space Agency). Due to problems in infrastructure and lack of experts, small country like Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) sees telemedicine as future in its health care organizing.

Florida State University College of Nursing, Tallahassee, FL, USA.
Background: Within the last decade, system and policy-level changes have driven substantial shifts in heart failure (HF) care from hospital to home, requiring greater support from informal care partners.
