Hi Friend,
I was pointed in your direction as potentially the right person to talk to about the use of virtual wards and the hospital@home initiatives in cardiology. If that's not in your remit I apologise for the intrusion, but would appreciate it if you can put me in touch with the appropriate person.
If these initiatives are on your radar, I'd like to understand your priorities and have a call about your progress in the area and update you on our history in the discipline and current deployments which include going live with 3 trusts at the end of the month, plus a further 5 over the next quarter. Overview link
At Ortus ihealth, we provide a digital platform for Virtual Wards and Remote Monitoring that allows your clinical teams to monitor patients remotely, identify those that are deteriorating, take action where needed as well as step patients up or down as their condition requires.
We bring monitoring, automated follow-up and escalation plus patient communications into a single cardiology focussed Virtual Ward dashboard, irrespective of where they are on their journey. From referral to post operative monitoring and PIFU, we've built or can configure end to end cardiology pathways. Using our toolkit Cardiologists, ANPs and multi-disciplinary teams can and are already managing virtual wards optimised for risk and clinical time and capacity.
At Barts Health NHS Trust, who helped develop and have been using the platform for nearly 4 years, our digital platform is BMJ award winning. It is also now being implemented across all of London's tertiary Heart Centres covering multiple cardiology pathways, potentially 1.2m londoners and with the expectation that Ortus could be used across other disciplines.
We connect to patient devices locally to the patient via their phone and collect a variety of data and information including BP, Oximetry etc., PREMS, PROMS, symptoms and questionnaires through our patient portal and apps.
Pre-consultation and pre or post diagnosis our pathway automation allows a single click to instigate a flow of activities to be time released to patients including education, questionnaires, vitals collection and consent and the pathway requires greatly reducing the follow-up and chasing of patients traditionally required. You can even use nudges for reminders or message single or groups of patients with in platform messaging.
Finally, there is no care without connected care we are delivering integration into EHR/PAS systems and have NHS spine integration for patient onboarding.
I do appreciate your help and I hope to hear from you. If I've wasted your time I sincerely apologise.
Regards,
Nick Niz
