OBJECTIVE:

To describe the use of telemedicine by health professionals for diagnosis or treatment of patients during the Covid-19 pandemic.

This is a systematic literature review of observational studies. Five databases were used. The assessment of the studies methodological quality occurred individually among the revisors and the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) tool was used.

The services provided through telemedicine were consultation/screening, consultation/follow-up or monitoring, test reports, medication prescriptions and case discussions.
