DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES AND TELEMEDICINE IN THE REHABILITATION OF PATIENTS WITH MUSCULOSKELETAL INJURIES: INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE AND INITIAL RESULTS OF THE NATIONAL PROGRAM IN UZBEKISTAN

Abstract

The article examines modern approaches to the use of digital technologies and telemedicine in the rehabilitation of patients after musculoskeletal injuries. The possibilities of remote patient monitoring using electronic medical systems, mobile applications, and specialized computer programs for assessing the recovery process are described. Special attention is given to telemedicine consultations, which allow doctors to observe patients remotely and adjust treatment programs in a timely manner. The use of modern medical data analysis technologies, including artificial intelligence systems, is discussed, helping to assess recovery dynamics, select individualized exercise programs, and predict treatment outcomes. International experience in the application of digital technologies in traumatology and orthopedics, demonstrating high efficiency of remote patient rehabilitation, is also presented. Particular attention is given to the development of digital medicine in the Republic of Uzbekistan and the first results of implementing telemedicine technologies in medical practice. It is shown that the use of digital technologies contributes to improving the quality of medical care, increasing accessibility to rehabilitation services, and accelerating the recovery process after injuries.
