Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The integration of telemedicine into veterinary practice has emerged as a promising solution to enhance access to veterinary care, improve efficiency, and overcome geographical barriers. This thesis explores the application and implications of telemedicine in veterinary practice, focusing on its benefits, challenges, and ethical considerations. The study delves into the current landscape of telemedicine in veterinary medicine, highlighting its potential to revolutionize the delivery of veterinary services. Through a comprehensive literature review, key issues such as regulatory frameworks, technology requirements, and the impact on the veterinarian-client-patient relationship are examined in depth. The research methodology section outlines the approach taken to investigate the use of telemedicine in veterinary practice, including data collection methods, sample selection, and analysis techniques. Findings from the study shed light on the experiences and perspectives of veterinarians, pet owners, and other stakeholders regarding the implementation of telemedicine. The discussion section critically evaluates the implications of telemedicine on veterinary care quality, patient outcomes, and professional standards. Moreover, ethical considerations such as data privacy, informed consent, and the limitations of remote diagnosis are analyzed in detail. The study concludes with a summary of key findings, implications for veterinary practice, and recommendations for future research and practice. The significance of incorporating telemedicine into veterinary care is underscored, emphasizing its potential to enhance access to care, improve communication between veterinarians and clients, and optimize resource utilization. The thesis provides valuable insights into the evolving role of telemedicine in veterinary practice and calls for further exploration and integration of telemedicine technologies to advance the field of veterinary medicine.
