Method: Studies reviewed were obtained from PubMed and ScienceDirect. Randomized clinical trials showing telemedicine's effectiveness in improving mental health symptoms in COPD patients were searched last on 7 September 2023.
Result: Telemedicine for the health sector has various forms, such as online consultation, telemonitoring, and chatbots. Telemedicine exercise shows an improvement in symptoms of depression and anxiety based on the HADS scores for COPD patients suffering from mental health problems.
