Summary

JointCOACH is a web-based communication platform that enables joint replacement patients to communicate with their care team via computer or smartphone throughout their episode of care, from the time that surgery is scheduled until at least 90 days postoperatively.

Detailed description

Patients will receive the following information at key intervals: 1) instructions about how to prepare for surgery, 2) information about the procedure, 3) information about medications and pain control, 4) information about postoperative recovery and rehabilitation. In addition, several surveys will be distributed using JointCOACH to keep patients involved in their own recovery and to keep the surgical team informed of their progress. The proposed research will help determine if JointCOACH can improve patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes.
