The COVID-19 pandemic has provided a long-overdue impetus to care for patients remotely, which has been supported by fast medical and technological developments that facilitate increased patient autonomy related to remote monitoring, greater personalisation of treatment, more remote patient-healthcare professional (HCP)  nteractions, and support programmes tailored to individual needs. As more and more data are being collected in the healthcare sector, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms can identify patterns in the data that can be used to further improve healthcare and support.
