Evaluation of Nurse-led Integrated Care of Complex Patients Facilitated By Telemonitoring: The SMaRT Study

Medly will enable patients with HF, COPD, Hypertension, Mental Health, or Diabetes to input measurements with wireless home medical devices and to answer symptom questions on the smartphone. The measurements will be automatically and wirelessly transmitted to the mobile phone and then to a data server. Automated self-care instructions/messages will be sent to the patient based on the readings and reported symptoms. If there are signs of their status deteriorating, an alert will be sent to a clinician that is responsible for the particular chronic condition of concern. The clinicians will have all the relevant patient data sent to them and will be able to access (through a secure web portal) to view historical and trending data for their patients.
