Resumen
Introducción

El desarrollo y crecimiento de la era tecnológica demanda la exploración de nuevas oportunidades en la prestación de servicios en salud. La telepsiquiatría es un claro ejemplo del desarrollo en tecnología y constituye un valioso aporte a la solución de problemas específicos, como la prestación de servicios especializados en salud mental en regiones de difícil acceso.

Objetivo

Describir las fortalezas y dificultades relacionadas con las nuevas tecnologías empleadas, centrándose en aplicaciones de telepsiquiatría para la atención en salud mental, y posibles oportunidades de implementación y aplicación en nuestro escenario.

Métodos

Revisión de literatura médica en MedLine, The Cochrane Library Controlled Trial Registry databases, Lilacs y SciELO (hasta enero del 2011) utilizando el término “telepsychiatry”. Se encontraron 244 referencias. Los artículos se seleccionaron manualmente por título y disponibilidad, dada su relevancia para la revisión.

Desarrollo y Conclusiones

Los resultados publicados en la literatura indican que las intervenciones realizadas por telepsiquiatría son comparables con tratamientos de consulta cara a cara. De igual manera, se encontraron resultados positivos respecto a costos y acceso en regiones apartadas. En Colombia, el terreno legal y logístico está preparado para la generación de trabajos en esta área.

Abstract
Introduction

Development and growth of the technological era require the exploration of new opportunities in health services. Telepsychiatry is a clear example of technology implemented in the solution of a specific problem, such as the provision of specialized mental health services in remote areas.

Objective

To describe strengths and barriers related to new technologies, focusing on the applications of telepsychiatry on mental healthcare, and possible opportunities for implementation and application in our scenario.

Methods

Review of the medical literature in Medline, The Cochrane Library Controlled Trial Registry databases, Lilacs y Scielo (until January 2011), using the term “telepsychiatry”. A total of 244 articles were identified. Articles were selected manually by title and availability if they discussed the advantages and disadvantages of telepsychiatry specifically, or technology in general.

Development and Conclusions

Published data indicate that telepsychiatry and face to face treatments have comparable outcomes on different levels. Additionally, positive outcomes were found regarding costs and access in isolated places. In Colombia, there are legal and logistic opportunities to develop programs in this field.
