Dr Nick Harvey – South Downs Health and Care GP Federation and Andrew Cockayne - Captive Health
In 2017 we set out to develop information pathways for patients with common conditions. As a federation of 20+ GP practices, we chose to bring these to life with Captive Health’s Patient Connect platform.
This was re-designed for us as My Local Health and offers patients the right information at the right time, pathway by pathway to promote self-care and regular contact with their surgery. This presentation will describe what we set out to do, how we approached it and presents the early results for peer review and comment.
3.50– 4.20 Owise – A personalised breast cancer app
Dr Anne T Bruinvels – Founder, Px HealthCare Ltd
Anne’s presentation is about the issues that people affected by cancer experience and how the award-winning mobile app OWise breast cancer supports patients by providing them with personalised medical information, a tailor-made list of questions to help them prepare for doctor’s visits and real-time tools to record and share their well-being and side effects.
These Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) are important for both patients and clinicians as they give people insight into how patients perceive their treatment and inform clinicians if the treatment needs to be adjusted. This has been shown to improve patients’ quality of life and avoid unnecessary hospitalisations. OWise is freely downloadable and will be developed for other cancer types in the very near future.
