Outline of Research at the Start

Telemedicine aims to slow the spread of infection, and to enhance the quality and cost of healthcare. However, its use in Japan is still limited. This research aims to increase the patients’ awareness and willingness to use a telemedicine service. It also seeks to explore the usability problems of a telemedicine system and create innovative solution/s that meet the needs of as many patients as possible. The research focuses on people with special needs, including elderly patients with chronic diseases. Participatory design approaches will be used to achieve our goals.
