Study Summary

This trial aims to develop a system to identify and predict patient symptoms after discharge in order to minimize adverse events. The system will use patient-reported symptoms and predictive algorithms to escalate to inpatient and ambulatory clinicians. The study will be conducted with patients who have multiple chronic conditions and will be evaluated for its impact on post-discharge adverse events.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with two or more chronic conditions like heart disease, diabetes, COPD, etc., who are hospitalized and will be discharged to home or a facility. They must speak English or have an English-speaking healthcare proxy.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests an ePRO application designed to monitor symptoms in real-time and predict adverse events after patients with multiple chronic conditions leave the hospital. It involves developing predictive models and integrating them into digital health apps.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves using a symptom monitoring app rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected. However, there may be technical issues or stress related to using the technology.

Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Intervention (Arm 3)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
During the 30-month Main Trial (RCT) Period, patients will be randomized to the intervention (Arm 3, n=425). Data collection for post-discharge AE determination will occur during both periods.
Group II: Usual Care (Arm 1)Active Control1 Intervention
During the 18-month Baseline Period (Arm 1, n=450) patients will be enrolled and receive usual care to develop the initial predictive model.
Group III: Usual Care (Arm 2)Active Control1 Intervention
During the 30-month Main Trial (RCT) Period, patients will be randomized to usual care (Arm 2, n=425). Data collection for post-discharge AE determination will occur during both periods.
