Telemedicine is the practice of delivering healthcare remotely via the use of technology, allowing for direct communication between patients and healthcare professionals as well as the exchange of medical records without the necessity for face-to-face encounters. On the other hand, remote patient monitoring (RPM) entails continuously tracking patients' health information and vital signs utilizing a variety of digital tools and technologies. This divide is filled by telemedicine, which enables patients to digitally communicate with medical professionals wherever they may be. For elderly or underprivileged patients who are confined to their homes due to chronic illnesses, telemedicine technology can be used to offer home health care. In a number of recent randomized controlled studies, RPM was discovered to be more effective than traditional treatment. Virtual reality and augmented reality, particularly in the context of telemedicine and RPM, have profoundly changed the landscape of healthcare. Even though telemedicine has many benefits for monitoring patients from a distance, it is important to understand and deal with the obstacles and drawbacks that might hinder its efficacy and uptake. Beyond its technical capabilities, telemedicine's effectiveness in remote patient monitoring depends on the experiences, viewpoints, and input of both patients and healthcare professionals.
