A theory-based analysis of the implementation of online asynchronous telemedicine platforms into primary care practices using Normalisation Process Theory.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Online asynchronous telemedicine platforms are effective and have been implemented in primary care practices, but it is unclear whether implementation was successful. Implementation has not been studied on a large scale in primary care practice. Normalisation Process Theory is a sociological theory used to understand how complex practices can be embedded into routine practice. We aimed to identify and evaluate factors affecting, and make recommendations for, implementation of online asynchronous telemedicine platforms in primary care practice using Normalisation Process Theory.

Methods

A systematic search was carried out across four databases. Studies included were empirical research, published between January 2015 and November 2022, of qualitative, quantitative a
