Abstract
Today, the population of Ukraine is experiencing significant difficulties in various spheres of life, however, one of the most urgent problems remains to ensure the proper level of health and preserve the life of the nation. Therefore, the quality of medical care needs special attention now, not only as a direct function but also as a kind of criterion of the level of activity of the health care system and state policy as a whole. One of the innovative directions of the provision of medical care to the population in the 21st century is digital, as well as information and telecommunication technologies, the use of which made it possible to create a single medical information space that combines practical and theoretical medicine, ensures the planning of new scientific research and targeted training specialists of various fields of medicine, who later implement knowledge and skills in medical practice. The purpose of our research was to study the directions of using telemedicine technologies in the work of medical institutions and the possibilities of improving the provision of medical care to the population through their use.Research methods. The used methods of the system approach and system analysis made it possible to investigate the possibilities of optimal use of telemedicine technologies and analyze existing problems and propose ways to solve them.The results. Modern sources of professional literature consider telemedicine from different angles: as a set of tools and complexes that provide users with access to current medical resources, including international ones, realize the potential of modern information and telecommunication technologies in health care; as well as a multi-level and multi-component system, which includes both medical organizations with their professional, informational and educational resources, medical diagnostic devices, databases and system users, as well as technical means of access to telecommunication networks, communication channels and network means, transmitters and other converters of medical information into digital electrical signals for further transmission through communication channels. Taking into account the multidisciplinary nature of medicine and a wide range of medical services, the unification of clinical, anamnestic, laboratory, radiation, etc. databases and the possibility of their transmission and reception using equipment from different manufacturers is of particular importance. One of the unified and most widely used standards in the field of medical image transmission today is DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) - an international standard for processing and transmitting radiological and other medical images from medical devices to a computer, which has found wide application in various industries of medicineConclusions. The analysis of literary sources proves the need for further detailed study of the possibilities of digital and information technologies in medicine to improve the methods of providing medical assistance to the population in wartime conditions. For the most effective targeted application of information systems and obtaining optimal results, a clear understanding of their capabilities and functions is necessary to achieve the ultimate goal - providing timely and high-quality medical care to the patient. Provision of reliable information archiving and recovery systems, communication systems between medical institutions of different levels, optimization of mobile medical programs, and monitoring systems for vital indicators of patients with various severity of diseases guarantee the continuity of the treatment and diagnostic process in modern complex conditions.
