    Lessons Learned from the Pandemic in Indonesia: Enhancing Doctor-Patient Medical Communication to Improve Diagnostic Certainty in Telemedicine

    Get PDF
    Objective: The COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia has transformed various aspects of life, particularly in healthcare, where communication between doctors and patients has shifted toward increased utilization of telemedicine. This research aims to achieve several objectives. Firstly, it investigates the deployment process of telemedicine as a remote medical service solution during pandemic circumstances, involving physical distancing and constraints. Secondly, it explores how telemedicine is adapted within clinic settings, considering the unique challenges and necessary adjustments for effective integration.   Method: This research utilizes a case study approach, specifically a multiple case study.   Result: Telemedicine heavily relies on patients' knowledge, information, and their role in substituting a physician's sensory input in making comprehensive medical decisions. Effective communication skills emerge as a critical solution, often overlooked as a soft skill for medical practitioners. Telemedicine encounters difficulties in discerning nonverbal cues compared to in-person consultations. To address this challenge, information gathering should encompass various media, such as photos and videos, in addition to text or verbal exchanges. Furthermore, telemedicine faces barriers related to connectivity and network issues.   Conclusion: Recognizing the equal standing of doctors and patients is imperative, with physicians fostering openness and trust as the foundation for mediated communication. Although specific criteria for information collection exist, doctors should proactively explore relevant patient aspects. To mitigate network issues, healthcare facilities should establish robust network infrastructure, provide healthcare professionals with suitable devices, and consider dedicated telemedicine applications for comprehensive technology mastery

    Objective: Numerous studies have emphasized the web of factors contributing to a driver’s vulnerability to road accidents. These factors often stem from the interaction between drivers’ conduct, environmental conditions, and vehicle-related aspects. Among these elements, road rage and aggressive driving behavior are particularly noteworthy for their roles in road accidents. In this article, we delve into the connection between road rage, aggressive driving, and their combined impact on the likelihood of road accidents among Malaysian drivers.   Theoretical framework: Theoretical materials were based on international scientific publications, reports, and scientific papers. Empirical findings from previous studies were critically reviewed for a more complete and objective presentation of the road accident problem.   Methodology: This study used a cross-sectional design to administer self-administered questionnaires to drivers. The survey method made it possible to study the factors influencing susceptibility to traffic accidents quantitatively. The analysis reveals compelling insights using a rigorous structural equation modeling approach.   Results and Conclusion: Driving anger and aggressive driving significantly influence the likelihood of road accidents among Malaysian drivers. This study holds significant implications for theoretical understanding and practical intervention strategies to reduce road accident proneness within the Malaysian road user community. The findings provide valuable insights and recommendations to enhance road safety, ultimately contributing to the sustainability of communities through reduced road accidents.   Originality/value: The originality and value of the study lie in its in-depth examination of the relationship between driving anger, aggressive driving, and the likelihood of road accidents among Malaysian drivers. It goes beyond existing research by employing a rigorous structural equation modelling approach, drawing from international scientific publications and empirical findings. This comprehensive approach offers fresh insights into the specific context of Malaysia and provides a foundation for practical interventions to reduce road accident proneness, contributing to community sustainability and road safety
