Resumen

La autorización de la telesalud en fisioterapia en Brasil
se llevó a cabo solamente después del inicio de la pandemia del
COVID-19, lo que requirió una rápida adopción de adaptaciones
tecnológicas para garantizar la oferta de servicios de salud de forma
remota, incluida su accesibilidad, así no hubo tiempo para estructurar
esta modalidad de manera suficiente. Este estudio analizó el grado
de adherencia y las barreras de afrontamiento de los fisioterapeutas
brasileños respecto a los servicios de telesalud ofrecidos durante
la crisis provocada por la pandemia del COVID-19. Se trata de un
estudio transversal, que abarcó una gran cantidad de participantes,
quienes respondieron un cuestionario electrónico en la plataforma
SurveyMonkey. Entre los 245 fisioterapeutas incluidos en el estudio,
el grado de adherencia a los servicios de teleconsulta, telemonitoreo
y/o teleconsulta fue del 63,3% (n=155). De las modalidades utilizadas,
el 74,8% (n=116) fue teleconsulta, el 71,0% (n=110) telemonitoreo
y el 23,9% (n=37) teleconsultoría. Las barreras observadas con
mayor frecuencia por los profesionales fueron: dificultades para
conectarse a Internet (38,1%; n=59), problemas relacionados con
la tecnología utilizada para el trabajo (29,7%; n=46) y falta de
compatibilidad completa de las modalidades de atención con el
área de especialización (25,8%; n=40). Se concluye que el grado
de adherencia de los fisioterapeutas brasileños a los servicios de
telesalud para hacer frente a la crisis provocada por la pandemia
del COVID-19 fue alto, a pesar de los desafíos de afrontamiento
debido a las dificultades relacionadas con la conexión a internet y
el uso de la tecnología
