Telemedicine and the European Health Data Space: a new paradigm for healthcare in the EU.
Review in Frontiers in digital health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Telemedicine has emerged as a transformative tool for remote healthcare, taking advantage of information and communication technologies to simplify the access to healthcare by patients. With the publication of Regulation (EU) 2025/327 on the European Health Data Space (EHDS), telemedicine has gained new momentum, particularly in the context of MyHealth@EU. Objectives: This article explores the framework for cross-border telemedicine under the EHDS, with a focus on real-world applications. It also aims to identify the enablers and barriers in several key domains, including legal, regulatory, organizational, financial, clinical, cultural, and technical aspects. The article also aims to discuss innovations in the field of telemedicine, namely the application of artificial intelligence. Methods: This review was conducted, focusing on cross-border telemedicine applications and the impact of the EHDS. The review also included studies related to telemedicine implementations in different medical disciplines, presenting the key successes and the challenges associated with these methods. Results: It is highlighted the initial progress made in cross-border telemedicine, where various approaches have been used, including teleconsultation, tele-expertise exchange, telemonitoring, telepathology, teleradiology, and remote surgery. Despite challenges such as legal uncertainties, financial constraints, and technical barriers, the integration of EHDS, supported by MyHealth@EU, has proven beneficial in building trust in secure, reliable telemedicine applications. The lessons learned and recommendations offer valuable insights for scaling cross-border telemedicine services. With the implementation of the EHDS and the use of MyHealth@EU, services can significantly improve access to healthcare and clinical outcomes by enabling more informed decision-making. As these services continue to evolve, they will contribute to a more integrated, and patient-centered healthcare system.
