Abstract
We conducted a retrospective analysis to determine the potential reduction in treatment burden through the expansion of virtual care among children with leukemia (n=152). Patients living in urban areas traveled median distances of 1555km compared with 7536km for patients living in rural areas (p<.05). For the latter group, a median reduction in travel distance of 3560km (interquartile range [IQR], 2136-5787km), travel time of 51h (IQR, 26-78h), and CO2 emissions of 623kg (IQR, 374-1013kg) was estimated, if every second visit was replaced by video consultations.
