Telehealth Intervention of Cardiovascular Diseases Patients: A Quantitative Study

    Telehealth provides medical treatment, patient education, self-care, and health information using digital communication technology. Telehealth involves remote data exchange between a patient and a healthcare provider. Telehealth may enhance health care in underdeveloped countries. This research examines how Pakistani physicians and nurses see telemedicine for cardiovascular disease therapy. We employed non-probability sampling to pick respondents for this quantitative investigation. In this research, 30 individuals completed a well-designed questionnaire. 63 percent were male, 37 percent female. The researchers concluded that telemedicine intervention is useful for cardiovascular disease and possibly many other illnesses and ailments. These findings did not prove it was always useful. International NGOs are helping telehealth expand. These organisations help poor rural Pakistanis improve their health. Telehealth and personal health information has spread via electronic and social media. Telehealth helps battle cardiovascular problems by connecting patients in urban and rural Pakistan to competent hospitals and institutes. Telehealth may reduce patient wait times. Telehealth platform users who continuously address their particular health challenges may outperform the overall population, according to the research. Telehealt make treatment easier and more accessible for patients. There aren't enough physicians, nurses, hospital beds, specialists, or appointments on patients' chosen
