ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION:

Digital technology is increasingly being adopted within primary healthcare services to improve service delivery and health outcomes; however, the scope for digital innovation within primary care services in rural areas is currently unknown. This systematic review aims to synthesise existing research on the use and integration of digital health technology within primary care services for rural populations across the world. METHODS AND

ANALYSIS:

A systematic approach to the search strategy will be conducted. Relevant medical and healthcare-focused electronic databases will be searched using key search terms between January 2013 and December 2023. Searches will be conducted using specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. A systematic study selection and data extraction process will be implemented, using standardised templates. Outcomes will be reported using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses- Protocol statement guidelines. Quality assessment and risk of bias appraisal will be conducted using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethical approval will not be required because there is no individual patient data collected or reviewed. The finding of this review will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations. Outcomes will help to understand existing knowledge and identify gaps in delivering digital healthcare services, while also providing potential future practice and policy recommendations.
