Remote monitoring system for older adults at risk for complications: a scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Aging populations and the increasing incidence of chronic diseases are placing additional pressure on healthcare systems. Remote monitoring systems (RMS) have emerged as a solution for improving remote healthcare efficiency and monitoring complex elderly patients. However, telemonitoring services in elderly care are still in their infancy, and their effectiveness remains unproven, with the potential for context-dependent variability. To bridge this gap, we conducted a scoping review to understand the current state of RMSs for elderly individuals at risk for complications, and their potential impact on healthcare service use, elderly's quality of life, and cost-effectiveness.
