Diabetic patients are at risk of developing diabetic retinopathy and need to be monitored regularly. This study assessed the introduction of a mobile device that allows the diagnosis and monitoring of diseases related to the retina. Different Primary Care professionals were included, both from rural and urban areas. They used this device for a while and told us about their experience as well as that of the patients. We also wanted to see facilitators and barriers to the introduction of telemedicine. The project has been carried out under the contract of a consortium, with among others Hospital Sant Joan de Reus and the ICS within the EIT Health call.
