Overview
Assessing the clinical and organisational impact of a home-based post-operative monitoring strategy incorporating the MultiSense® device involving 80 patients aged 65 years and over who have undergone major surgery.
Detailed description
Evaluate the clinical and organisational impact of a post-operative home monitoring strategy incorporating the MultiSense® device in elderly patients.
The study will be conducted in a multicentre setting, involving 80 patients aged 65 years and over who have undergone major surgery.
Interventions
- Device Monitoring by MultiSense
The MultiSense device will be placed on the patient's back and will allow physicians to remotely monitor six biological parameters
Primary outcome measures
- The percentage of patients whose care was deemed satisfactory [Time frame: 7 days]
Secondary outcome measures (12)
- Average length of initial hospital stay following surgery [Time frame: 7 days]
- Percentage of patients requiring unscheduled care related to surgery at 30 days [Time frame: 30 days]
- Percentage of patients with at least one unplanned rehospitalization following telemonitoring and at 30 days [Time frame: 30 days]
- Percentage of patients with at least one visit to the emergency department following telemonitoring and at day 30 [Time frame: 30 days]
- Percentage of patients with at least one grade 3 to 5 complication according to the Clavien-Dindo classification at 30 days [Time frame: 30 days]
- Number of unplanned rehospitalizations and/or emergency department visits at 30 days (total and per patient) [Time frame: 30 days]
- Number of unscheduled visits (to a general practitioner or a surgeon) at 30 days (total and per patient) [Time frame: 30 days]
- Quality of postoperative recovery using the French version of the fQoR-15 scale at hospital discharge (V2) and at 30 days (V4) [Time frame: 30 days]
- Measurement of the overall index score for the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire at preoperative assessment (V0), at hospital discharge (V2), and at 30 days (V4) [Time frame: 30 days]
- Total length of hospital stay (initial admission and readmission) at 30 days [Time frame: 30 days]
- DAOH30 (Days Alive and Out of Hospital) or Days of Independence at Home at Day 30, defined as the number of days during which the patient recovered independently at home without requiring hospitalization or rehospitalization, during the 30-day postoper [Time frame: 30 days]
- Percentage of patients who did not comply with remote monitoring via MultiSense® (non-compliance is defined as the patient discontinuing monitoring before reaching 80% of the scheduled duration, which corresponds to the 4th day) [Time frame: 4th day]
