Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary end point is the use of the various telemedical functionalities (tele-triage, virtual background service, specialist video consultation hours) by the telepediatric network. For this purpose, the type of service, the reason for treatment, the suspected diagnosis before the telemedical consultation and diagnosis after the telemedical consultation, the time required as well as the consequences and therapy recommendations from the telemedical consultation are recorded. The data are collected using electronic Case Report Forms (eCRF) in a web-based exchange platform for medical data (UMG's eHealth platform based on the C37.CaseBoard software). The data is collected for every telemedical contact.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The following secondary endpoints are collected using standardized surveys and expert interviews after the end of the study phase: 1. Integration of telemedical services into work processes. 2. Promoting and inhibiting factors in the implementation of the telepediatric network. 3. Required qualification / training of the actors involved. The following secondary endpoints are also recorded: 4. Acceptance of telemedicine by employees and patients / parents. In particular, satisfaction with telemedicine treatment and other acceptance-related factors are surveyed after each telemedical contact with the help of eCRFs or a standardized survey for the parents / patients. 5. Correspondence of the urgency level according to the telemedical initial assessment with a standardized triage system (MTS) compared to a reference system or according to expert assessment. The urgency classification according to MTS and the emergency admission data required for the reference classification are recorded with the help of eCRFs for each telemedical triage.
