Summary
Remote patient monitoring is a potential component for the management of chronic conditions that may provide reliable and real-time physiological measurements for clinical decision support, alerting, and patient self-management. The purpose of this study is to evaluate an UHN-built remote monitoring system for patients with complex chronic conditions called Medly.
Detailed description
Remote patient monitoring is a potential component for the management of chronic conditions that may provide reliable and real-time physiological measurements for clinical decision support, alerting, and patient self-management. The purpose of this study is to evaluate an UHN-built remote monitoring system for patients with complex chronic conditions called Medly. Patients with complex chronic conditions will be provided with a mobile phone and commercial home medical devices, such as a blood pressure monitor and weight scale. The measurements from the medical devices will be automatically sent to the mobile phone, and from there to a data server at the hospital for analysis and storage. Both clinicians and patients will be able to access these data and will be sent alerts by the system if the measurements are outside of the normal range. The system will be evaluated through interviews and comparing outcomes between the intervention and control groups.
