ABSTRACT

Digital healthcare involves the amalgamation of electronic technologies and inventive approaches within healthcare services. It encompasses utilizing digital tools, software systems, and communication platforms to enhance medical procedures, patient care, diagnosis, treatment, and the management of health records. Nursing, focused on preserving and improving the well-being of individuals, groups, families, and communities, converges with mHealth nursing within the broader landscape of digital healthcare. Breakthroughs such as Molly, a milestone in telenursing created by Sensely, represent notable progress in the field of digital healthcare. Digital innovations in pediatric healthcare and nursing herald a transformative era, significantly elevating the standards of care while fostering unparalleled advancements in accessibility and patient engagement. These technological advancements serve as catalysts, not just improving the quality of healthcare delivery but also revolutionizing the overall health outcomes for children and their families. Through telemedicine and healthcare mobile applications, families, especially those in remote areas, can access specialized care, reducing geographical barriers and minimizing the need for extensive travel. The integration of electronic health records (EHRs) ensures seamless coordination among healthcare providers, promoting personalized and efficient treatments. Wearable health devices empower parents and caregivers to monitor a child's health in real-time, facilitating timely interventions and proactive health management. Moreover, gamification and interactive elements in healthcare apps enhance children's participation in their treatment, promoting better adherence and engagement. These technological strides not only enhance the efficacy of pediatric care but also create a more inclusive and patient-centered healthcare landscape for children and their families, ultimately improving their overall well-being.
