Patients' health usually improves during hospitalization, but often worsens after discharge. What can we do to increase the effectiveness of treatment, reduce the number of complications, unnecessary medical appointments, and readmissions with limited human resources? To achieve this goal, Remote Patient Monitoring using the Comarch HomeHealth is a great solution.
Comarch HomeHealth, a medical application, is a part of a system for remote monitoring of persons with chronic diseases and patients discharged from hospitals. It can be used in single-user mode (for a single patient) or multi-user mode (for multiple patients), e.g. in nursing homes or by community nurses. Our remote patient monitoring system consists of a HomeHealth app, available on a tablet or a smartphone, and integrated measuring devices, tailored to the patient’s needs.
The application guides the user step by step through all the measurements, reminds the patient to perform them, and sends the results to the Comarch e-Care telemedicine platform where they are automatically analyzed by the system and then reviewed by the medical personnel. The measurement history is also stored in the application so that the patient, the caregivers, and the physicians can access it. The application is very friendly and intuitive, designed among others for seniors. With its support, patients easily take measurements correctly by themselves.
Main features:
• Performing measurements and saving a history of results from integrated measuring devices or entering them manually.
• Immediate transmission of results of measurements of health parameters, the ranges of which are set individually for each patient. Notification on the Comarch e-Care platform if the parameters exceed applicable standards.
• Reminders to take medicament according to a fixed schedule (product and dosage).
• Sharing photos of e.g. lab test results, disturbing symptoms, or the progress of the treatment from the Comarch HomeHealth application to the Comarch e-Care platform.
• Personalized questionnaires for patients, concerning e.g. their diets, physical activity, and well-being.
• Possibility to contact the Telemonitoring Center 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
How does it work?
1. The physician orders remote monitoring of the patient outside the medical facility, adapts its course, and personalizes the standard measurement ranges.
2. The patient takes measurements that are transmitted to the application. The results are automatically analyzed in the Comarch e-Care platform and monitored by medical staff.
3. After the monitoring period, the patient receives a detailed report, which can be viewed by all physicians.
Comarch HomeHealth and the Comarch e-Care platform are class IIa medical devices certified for compliance with Directive 93/42/EEC. Comarch Healthcare S.A. has implemented and certified a system for management of the quality of medical devices compliant with ISO 13485.
