Modern technologies, including telemedicine and remote patient monitoring, show promise in improving access to complex post-COVID-19 cardiopulmonary rehabilitation programs.
Modern technologies such as telemedicine and remote monitoring offer promising avenues to improve access to and delivery of post-COVID-19 cardiopulmonary rehabilitation.
Managing cardiopulmonary rehabilitation in patients with COVID-19 remains a global challenge due to the facets of this virus. The technologies used in the rehabilitation of post-COVID-19 patients fail to keep pace with the global epidemiological developments. The purpose of this article is to review the medical technologies used in post-COVID-19 cardiopulmonary rehabilitation and the innovations that have allowed us to adapt and care for our patients. The pandemic highlighted the need for seismic changes in diagnostic and rehabilitation paradigms. We discuss advances in telemedicine and telemedicine-based rehabilitation, remote patient monitoring and emerging technologies used in cardiopulmonary rehabilitation. The rapid adoption of modern technologies in the practice of post-COVID-19 cardiopulmonary rehabilitation is promising and can improve patients’ access to complex rehabilitation programs with outstanding results.
Andrițoi et al. (2022) conducted a review in Post-COVID-19. Modern technologies (telemedicine and remote patient monitoring) was evaluated. Modern technologies, including telemedicine and remote patient monitoring, show promise in improving access to complex post-COVID-19 cardiopulmonary rehabilitation programs.
