Abstract

Telemedicine remains a challenge for many diseases. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a common illness already benefitting from a multitude of interventions in this area. They are discussed by the authors from the point of view of the benefits and limitations of telemedicine's involvement in the diagnosis and therapy of this chronic obstructive disease.
