Resumen

Introducción: En la actualidad las intervenciones en salud ya sean de tipo diagnóstico o terapéutico no son distribuidas equitativamente, por lo cual garantizar la prestación de servicios de salud representa un reto incesante para muchos programas en diferentes países; sin embargo, gracias a los avances tecnológicos en telecomunicación y procesos de imágenes, es ahora posible ofrecer varios servicios de salud a un mayor número de la población a distancia con un buen nivel de calidad; esto se define como telemedicina.

Método: A través de una búsqueda sistemática de la literatura médica en las bases de datos: Medline, ieeexplore, Scielo, por medio de las palabras mesh: Medical informatics, technology management, telemedicine, E-health, Latinoamérica, se buscó reconocer los datos relevantes con respecto a la historia, las aplicaciones actuales y futuras de la telemedicina.

Desarrollo: Después de seleccionar la mejor evidencia según los objetivos de esta revisión, se procedió a analizar la importancia de la historia, aplicaciones en especialidades de medicina, ventajas y desventajas, barreras que limiten el desarrollo, y experiencias de la telemedicina en Latinoamérica.

Conclusión: Actualmente el uso de la telemedicina avanza rápidamente y podría representar una buena alternativa para complementar en términos
de costo-efectividad a muchos de los programas de salud que se ven alrededor del mundo, ya que facilita la toma de decisiones terapéuticas y diagnósticas en diferentes escenarios clínicos y complementa la formación académica en las escuelas de medicina; sin embargo, aun existen barreras de infraestructura principalmente los altos costos de inicio e instalación, que deben ser tenidos en cuenta, en especial para los países en desarrollo.
