Development and feasibility of a telemonitoring tool with full integration in the electronic medical record: a proof of concept study for patients with inflammatory bowel disease in remission on biological therapy.

Abstract:

:Objectives: Telemonitoring can be implemented to enhance disease monitoring and ultimately reduce the number of outpatient visits and associated costs. We developed an in house IBD mobile app and established a proof of concept study to demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of the telemonitoring tool for monitoring of disease activity.Methods: An IBD mobile app was designed through close collaboration between the Information Technology and Gastroenterology department of University Hospitals of Leuven. The study was proposed to all patients in remission under stable biological therapy visiting the outpatient clinic. During one-year follow-up, patients completed weekly and monthly questionnaires on their mobile device or on a website. Entered data were directly sent to the electronic medical record. Predefined red flags or alerts, generated by the answers to the questionnaires, were monitored daily.Results: The pilot study in 45 patients demonstrated accurate monitoring of disease activity with fast intervention during flares. During the 12-months follow-up period, an alert for disease activity was generated for 9 different patients out of 1296 completions of the questionnaire. Symptoms resolved spontaneously in 8 patients. One patient reported consecutive PRO-2 increase, endoscopy confirmed an IBD flare and therapy was switched. For the remaining 36 included patients, no alerts indicating disease activity increase were reported. Median compliance to all weekly and monthly questionnaires during 1 year was 52% (IQR: 24-91).Conclusions: We developed the mynexuzhealth IBD app with full integration in the electronic medical record. The app enabled continuous remote monitoring and showed accurate detection of flares.
