Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Telemedicine has emerged as a promising solution to improve access to healthcare services and enhance patient outcomes. This thesis investigates the impact of telemedicine on pediatric healthcare outcomes, focusing on its effectiveness in providing remote care to children. The study explores how telemedicine interventions influence key healthcare indicators such as access to care, quality of care, patient satisfaction, and health outcomes in pediatric populations. Chapter One provides an introduction to the research topic, outlining the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure, and definitions of key terms. Chapter Two presents a comprehensive literature review that examines existing studies on telemedicine in pediatric care, highlighting key themes, trends, and gaps in the literature. Chapter Three details the research methodology employed in this study, including the research design, data collection methods, sampling strategy, data analysis techniques, ethical considerations, and limitations of the research methodology. The chapter also discusses the theoretical framework guiding the study and justifies the chosen methodology. Chapter Four presents the findings of the study, analyzing the impact of telemedicine on pediatric healthcare outcomes based on the data collected. The chapter discusses the effectiveness of telemedicine interventions in improving access to care, enhancing quality of care, increasing patient satisfaction, and positively influencing health outcomes in pediatric patients. Chapter Five concludes the thesis by summarizing the key findings, discussing their implications for pediatric healthcare practice, and suggesting recommendations for future research and clinical practice. The study underscores the potential of telemedicine to revolutionize pediatric care delivery, particularly in remote areas or underserved communities, and emphasizes the importance of integrating telemedicine technologies into mainstream healthcare systems to improve pediatric healthcare outcomes. Overall, this thesis contributes to the growing body of literature on telemedicine and pediatric healthcare by providing empirical evidence of the impact of telemedicine interventions on pediatric healthcare outcomes. The findings have implications for policymakers, healthcare providers, and researchers seeking to leverage telemedicine technologies to enhance pediatric care delivery and improve health outcomes for children worldwide.
