Abstract

This study analyzes the effects of a telehealth program for the older adult population. A comprehensive search across the CINAHL, PubMed, DBpia, KISS, and RISS databases yielded 2,731 studies, with 10 studies meeting the inclusion criteria. SIGN was used for quality assessment, and CMA 4.0 and Revman 5.4 were used to analyze the effect size. The effect size for physiological indicators was -1.4 and for psychological indicators was 4.73, which was large but statistically insignificant. Of all physiological indicators, glycated hemoglobin level showed a medium effect size (ES=-0.43), and of all psychological indicators, quality of life (ES=14.12), subjective health (ES=1.05), and depression (ES=-2.14) showed large effect sizes. In the subgroup analysis, studies targeting healthy older adults (ES=3.25) and those that included the interactive program (ES=1.89) showed large effect sizes. The RCT programs (ES=0.76) showed a medium effect size. The findings confirm that telehealth programs have a significant effect on the older adult population.
