The effectiveness of telemedicine applications in mental health services: a meta-analysis study
Özet
Aim: This study was conducted to reveal the effectiveness of telemedicine applications in mental health services. Material method: For this meta-analysis study, data were obtained by searching PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCOhost, Google Scholar, and YÖK Thesis Center databases for the last 5 years in September–December 2023. After the review, 24 studies were included. Findings: In this meta-analysis, it was found that telemedicine interventions in mental health services decreased the depression level of individuals (SMD − 0.168, 95% CI − 0.315 to − 0.021; Z = − 2.243; p <.05). In addition, it was determined that the duration of the intervention played a role in the effectiveness of telemedicine interventions applied to individuals. In addition, it was determined that the type of intervention, the country where the research was conducted, and the patient group did not play a role in the effectiveness of telemedicine interventions applied to individuals. Conclusion: Telemedicine applications in mental health services can play an effective role in reducing the burden of chronic mental illness and improving patient outcomes.
