Background of Online Children's Medical Care
The medical needs of children, whose health condition changes rapidly day and night, are high, and in addition to outpatient, inpatient, and emergency services at medical institutions, various services such as telephone consultation, online medical services, and house calls are increasing. On the other hand, the scarcity of pediatricians, which can be said to be at the heart of the chronic problem of uneven distribution of medical specialties, makes it extremely difficult to secure pediatricians, and in many medical fields, the dedicated support of a small number of pediatricians is required to provide medical services.
Although it is possible for physicians other than pediatricians to treat children, the treatment of children in the process of growth and development requires different considerations from those for adults, such as age, physical characteristics, symptom presentation and progression, communication difficulties, understanding the family environment, cooperation with parents, prescribing in consideration of age, weight, and allergies, and so on. The response to children requires different considerations from those for adults.
However, this service is provided to support nighttime outpatient and emergency outpatient services, which are not available at many medical institutions, and to help alleviate the shortage in the medical field and relieve the anxiety of families. This service is provided to help alleviate the anxiety of families.
