dc.description.abstractBetween 2014 and 2019, the use of telemonitoring remained stable for all groups except medical specialists. In medical specialist departments, the use of telemonitoring increased from 11.2% (18/161) in 2014 to 19.6% (36/184) in 2019 (χ24=12.3; P=.02). In 2019, telemonitoring was used by 5.8% (28/485) of people with chronic disease. This was 18.2% (41/225) in GP organizations and 40.4% (44/109), 38.0% (78/205), and 8.9% (29/325) in the organizations of nurses working in primary, secondary, and elderly care, respectively. Up to 10% of the targeted patient group such as diabetics were regarded by health care professionals as suitable for using telemonitoring. The main benefits mentioned by the patients were "comfort" (421/1043, 40.4%) and "living at home for longer/more comfortably" (334/1047, 31.9%). Health care professionals added "improvement of self-management" (63/176, 35.8% to 57/71, 80.3%), "better understanding of the patient's condition" (47/176, 26.7% to 42/71, 59.2%), "reduction of workload" (53/134, 39.6% of nurses in elderly care), "better tailoring of care plan to the patient's situation" (95/225, 42.2% of GPs), and "saves time for patients/caregivers" (61/176, 34.7% of medical specialists). Disadvantages mentioned by professionals were that "it takes time to monitor data" (13/130, 10% to 108/225, 48.0%), "it takes time to follow up alerts" (15/130, 11.5% to 117/225, 52.0%), and "it is difficult to estimate which patients can work with telemonitoring" (22/113, 19.5% to 94/225, 41.8%).en_US
