“…In the sources, the previously described feeling of empowerment 23,26,32‐34,37 seems to give rise to critical reflection regarding time spent in connection with the TM solution 23‐26,28‐32,34,35 . According to the patients, the waiting time where they feared the outcome of the DFU consultation was a very stressful time independently of the setting 23‐25,28,32 . The sources report that patients found it very important that the TM consultation or feedback on pictures kept to the agreed schedule 23,38 .…”

“…The patients also reported feelings of fear and anxiety, because they always had to live with the risk of repeated admittance to hospital, recurrence of the DFU and ultimately amputation.

“…26,29 Even when the community care nurse, the podiatrist, the endocrinologist and/or the GP participated, they experienced that they were equal partners and not just the human with a hole in the foot. 23,26,29,[32][33][34] By elaborating this map, we identified two sub-maps suggesting that the positive experiences and feelings of empowerment were related to other issues.

“…This feeling reduced the patients' feelings of stress related to being a patient. 23,25,26,30 Within the sub-map "The need-to-have and the niceto-have," the patients also experienced that it was easier to get in contact with the health professionals when using a TM solution, especially because they got an immediate answer to their problem.…”

“…23,24,38 In addition, waiting for response in front of an app or a screen increased their sense of worry and was reported by the patients as a very different experience compared to waiting in a waiting room in a clinic or at a hospital. 23,24,29,31,38 Furthermore, the patients who used TM solutions also stressed the benefit of spending less time on transport or waiting in a waiting room. Thus, less time spent on transport or waiting increased patients' experiences of living an almost normal life without revealing their illness to others in their community or at their place of employment.…”

Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a common, complex and severe complication of diabetes that is associated with severely decreased health-related quality of life. Treatment of DFUs calls for a multi-sectoral approach, incorporating interdisciplinary care pathways. Telemedicine (TM) may be used as a communication tool between caregivers across healthcare sectors to obligate the need for close follow-up, including early intervention in preventing the recurrence of DFU.The objective of this review was to identify, examine and conceptually map the available literature on patients' experiences and views regarding the use of TM solutions among patients with DFUs. We identified the Population, Concept and Context to pinpoint the focus of this review, word the research question and title as well as facilitate the literature search strategy. The literature examined stems from 13 sources. We imposed no restrictions on the methodological approach of the included studies, neither on the format. During the review process, four main maps emerged: "A whole human not merely a hole in a human," "Less of a burden on the family, the community and the environment," "Competences and continuity of care are essential for high-quality care" and "The quality and modality of the technology." Further investigation from both the patients' and the multi-sectoral caregivers' perspective is needed, focusing on whatever modifications of the TM intervention may fit the DFU care pathway better.diabetic foot ulcer, patient experience, scoping review, telemedicine, wound Key Messages • a TM solution was reported to promote holistic and person-centred care and treatment • TM gave the patients an experience of being viewed as a whole person and not merely as a hole in a person • using a TM solution promotes an experience of having control, being included in decision-making, and being able to lead an almost normal life
