Factors Influencing Telemedicine Adoption Among Healthcare Professionals in Geriatric Medical Centers: A Technology Acceptance Model Approach.
Article in Behavioral sciences (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundTelemedicine has gained significance, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, offering remote healthcare solutions. However, its adoption in geriatric medical centers (GMCs) remains limited. Understanding the factors influencing telemedicine acceptance among care teams in geriatric medical centers is crucial for successful implementation.
aimThis study examines behavioral factors influencing telemedicine adoption among care teams in Israeli geriatric medical centers through the lens of the Technology Acceptance Model.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted with 406 healthcare professionals from four geriatric medical centers in Israel. Participants completed a self-administered questionnaire measuring self-efficacy, subjective norms, anxiety, resistance to change, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and intention to use telemedicine. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data.
resultsPerceived ease of use mediated the associations between self-efficacy and perceived usefulness and between subjective norms and perceived usefulness, demonstrating how confidence shapes technology acceptance. Perceived usefulness mediated the association between perceived ease of use and intention to use. Perceived ease of use did not mediate the relationship between anxiety or resistance to technological changes and perceived usefulness.
conclusionsThe study highlights the importance of perceived ease of use and usefulness in promoting telemedicine adoption among geriatric medical center care teams, emphasizing the need for targeted interventions to enhance these perceptions.
