SOLUTION

Clinical follow-up between visits

Scheduled contact with every enrolled patient, with alerts that bring those who need review to the team’s attention.

Nurse reviewing patient follow-up on the unit's monitors
Scheduled check-ins for every enrolled patient

Each contact records symptoms and changes since the last one, along with condition-specific data such as weight, home measurements or medication adherence. Administrative steps, such as upcoming appointments, can be handled in the same conversation.

Alerts based on defined escalation criteria

Responses are checked against the escalation criteria, such as combinations of symptoms or readings outside a set range, and core safety criteria always apply. The care team reviews each alert and decides what happens next, from another contact to an in-person assessment.

Each patient’s evolution over time

Every interaction is added to the patient’s record, showing how symptoms and readings evolve over weeks and months. Each new alert is read against that history, not as an isolated value.

Contact frequency adjusted to each patient’s status

The team can increase the frequency when changes call for closer attention, or reduce it while the patient remains stable. Inclusion, pause and exit criteria are set in the protocol.

Better Clinical Outcomes

Support proactive disease management and help reduce the risk of avoidable deterioration and hospitalizations.

Improved Patient Engagement

Keep patients engaged in their care plans through regular, accessible follow-up by phone and SMS.

Stronger Continuity of Care

Maintain consistent follow-up between appointments, supporting long-term disease management and treatment adherence.

Greater Clinical Efficiency

RELATED CAPABILITIES

Chronic and long-term follow-up connects with the rest of the care pathway

Long-term follow-up can overlap with admissions, tests and treatment changes.

Treatment support and adherence

Collection of information on medication taking, tolerability and support needs throughout treatment.

Perioperative care

Contact before the procedure to go over preparation and collect the information set out in the protocol.

Post-discharge care

Post-discharge follow-up during the window defined by the department, with symptom collection and alert criteria.
