En cuanto al factor temporal, la telemedicina puede clasificarse en sincrónica y asincrónica. […] Otra categorización, basada en el tiempo y la sincronía de la conexión, la divide en tres grupos: almacenamiento y envío, monitoreo remoto, y telepresencia interactiva. La primera categoría hace referencia a procesos en [los] cuales solo hay una vía en la comunicación, por tanto, son remitidos los datos para que, fuera de contacto en línea, sean evaluados por los profesionales pertinentes, quienes posteriormente envían los resultados de su análisis al lugar de origen; la segunda categoría posibilita que los profesionales de salud recolecten información de los pacientes a distancia, por medio del empleo de diferentes modalidades de sensores; la tercera categoría hace referencia a la comunicación en tiempo real entre dos sitios, la cual, puede ser extendida mediante diferentes formas de interacciones, permitiendo, así, proveer un grupo amplio de servicios de telemedicina [...] 1, record 1, Spanish, - lugar%20de%20origen

Telemedicine consultations are primarily classified according to the type of interaction that takes place between the patient and the health practitioner. "Synchronous telemedicine" (also called real-time telemedicine) refers to real-time interaction between the sender and the receiver of the data. During such a teleconsultation, there are insignificant time delays between the sending, receiving and collection of data. The most widely used means of synchronous telemedicine is videoconferencing. 3, record 2, English, - synchronous%20telemedicine
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Real-time telemedicine could be as simple as a telephone call or as complex as robotic surgery. It requires the presence of both parties at the same time and a communication link between them that allows a real-time interaction to take place. 4, record 2, English, - synchronous%20telemedicine

The COVID-19 pandemic has created unprecedented challenges to healthcare services. Concerns about hospital services being overwhelmed led National Health Service (NHS) institutions to develop novel approaches to caring for patients with suspected COVID-19. These include virtual hospitals (VH) where patients who have come to the attention of hospital services and need close monitoring, but do not necessarily need inpatient care, are followed remotely by hospital-based clinicians. VHs are particularly valuable during periods of high disease prevalence, when inpatient hospital services are struggling to cope. 1, record 3, English, - virtual%20hospital

El concepto de este proyecto es el de un "hospital virtual", "este se refiere al monitoreo remoto de los signos vitales que se consideran relevantes según el especialista médico, de acuerdo a la patología del paciente entre las que se encuentran pacientes postraumáticos, pacientes geriátricos, pacientes con enfermedades terminales, con el fin de observar y analizar sus signos desde una central de monitoreo por un especialista médico. En la práctica, el paciente podría encontrarse en su casa y el médico encargado desde una central de monitoreo, ubicado en el hospital del sector, observaría desde una terminal adecuada los signos vitales de dicho paciente y la imagen del mismo en instantes del día que se consideren necesarios, de manera que con ayuda de una interfaz adecuada pueda evaluar los signos de múltiples pacientes." 1, record 3, Spanish, - hospital%20virtual
