Abstract
Telemedicine’s application to chronic dialysis had its beginnings in 2010. The experience of a remote and isolated territory is reported with a background of six years. The number of patients treated is very low, but various practical aspects are addressed: technical IT liaison, biomedical maintenance and quality controls, monitoring the care pathway of patients with chronic renal disease (CKD), and the fundamental role of caregivers. For everyone, this is an extremely rewarding activity.
