The digitalization of the field of pneumology in Germany has a slowed down dynamic in the ambulatory sector, although the inclusion of telemedicine and its subgroups telemonitoring and telenursing makes it possible to treat a broad group of patients outside the existing practice structures, even with the addition of apps and monitoring of inhalers.
