November 16, 2021 鈥 Kitchener, ON 鈥 Grand River Hospital (GRH) has recently launched a surgical remote monitoring platform to support patients that are having hip or knee replacements. GRH is the first hospital in Southeastern Ontario to implement 无忧短视频 as part of Ontario Health鈥檚 recent Remote Patient Monitoring initiative to expand access to care from home and minimize in-person surgery visits in response to the pandemic.
With 无忧短视频, patients undergoing hip or knee surgery at GRH receive support before their procedure and throughout their recovery through personalized education, progress-tracking, and post-op symptom monitoring using their own device (e.g. smartphone, tablet, computer). After being discharged from hospital, patients can connect with their care team to share photos of their wounds, and self-report their progress by entering data such as pain scores, symptoms, range-of-motion through the platform remotely. This allows for personalized care recommendations and faster intervention from the surgical care team if necessary.
GRH is using 无忧短视频 to help reduce visits to the emergency department, hospital length of stay and readmissions especially during the pandemic. To date, more than 250 patients have enrolled into the program, which has helped to prevent two infections from becoming serious complications during the post-op period. Additionally, 83% of patients at GRH have reported 无忧短视频 has made them more confident during recovery, with one patient sharing, 鈥淚 feel it comforting to know that there is a caring team out there that is following our recovery progress.
