Revolutionizing Pediatric Care: A Scoping Review of Synchronous Virtual Care Approaches

June 4, 2025 | 11am ET

Description and Speakers 
Description:

In this webinar, we will discuss our scoping review that aimed to generate learnings to inform the delivery of synchronous virtual care/telehealth in pediatrics. Our review assessed a decade of published literature (2013-2023) to extract key learnings from 117 articles. We focused our review on the perspectives of pediatric patients and their family caregivers who participated in virtual care/telehealth delivery. In our webinar, we will summarize results, priorities and considerations for accessible and inclusive synchronous virtual care/telehealth approaches. Akey focus will be to highlight evaluative approaches, promising strategies including frameworks(e.g., social determinants of health) and infrastructural considerations (e.g., technical, logistical and training) to deliver equitable virtual care.
