Background:-Emergency Departments (EDs) face growing challenges including overcrowding, long wait times, and
limited specialist access, which directly impact patient outcomes. Telemedicine, driven by advances in digital

workflows. Its applications in triage, acute care, and follow-up have shown promise in improving efficiency and care
quality.
