Descripción del proyecto
Empoderar a los pacientes con VIH mediante una plataforma de sanidad móvil para la autogestión
Los avances en la digitalización y el internet de las cosas han impulsado la innovación en diversos sectores. En el ámbito de la atención sanitaria, estos avances pueden mejorar la personalización del paciente y ofrecer una atención médica más eficaz y precisa. Sin embargo, la integración de estas tecnologías en la asistencia sanitaria sigue siendo limitada, sobre todo en los niveles más bajos y por parte de unos pocos proveedores. En este contexto, el proyecto EmERGE, financiado con fondos europeos, pretende desarrollar una innovadora plataforma de sanidad móvil. Esta plataforma se centra en capacitar a los pacientes de VIH con la enfermedad estable para que puedan autogestionar su estado. Aprovechando las soluciones de sanidad móvil existentes, los proveedores sanitarios de España y el Reino Unido explotarán esta plataforma. Su aplicación ofrecerá un apoyo crucial y permitirá a los pacientes de toda la Unión Europea ponerse en contacto con médicos y facultativos.
Objetivo
EmERGE will develop a mHealth platform to enable self-management of HIV in patients with stable disease. The platform will build upon and integrate the existing mHealth solutions operated by pioneering healthcare providers in the UK and Spain and apply a rigorous co-design approach to ensure patient and clinician input to the solution. The platform will provide users with web based and mobile device applications which interface securely with relevant medical data and facilitate remote access to key healthcare providers EATG, the European HIV patient organisation, will provide a direct and deep interaction with representative patients and clinicians from 5 EU countries. The platform and interfaces will be validated in a large study of 3900 patients using a tailored HTA process, MAST, specifically developed for the assessment of mHealth solutions including translatability as a key factor. Based on prior work showing a high uptake rate and use of mHealth in HIV patient populations, EmERGE aims to demonstrate the benefits to patients and simultaneous increases in cost-effectiveness for healthcare providers by reducing face-to-face consultations, estimated at 6000 saved per year within this study alone. Patient reported outcomes will be agreed and used in the assessment and development of the system which also aims to increase adherence and enable frailty to be reported using mHealth technology. Innovation will be given priority from the beginning by developing new business models of care provision, targeting key stakeholders in the EU health provider sector, including policymakers and clinicians, while eliciting demand from patients to highlight and initiate the widespread implementation and compensation of mHealth solutions within the timeframe of the project. Guidelines and policy briefs will be produced to evidence the benefits and disseminate the lessons learned to support the uptake of mHealth for self-management of other chronic diseases.
