About this study

The investigators proposed to conduct a retrospective study to evaluate the impact of the implementation of apTeleCare software on the management of dialysis patients at home in terms of the number and duration of hospitalizations. For this purpose, the investigators will compare patients' data over a 2-year interval before the introduction of Telemonitoring (January 2012 and December 2013 inclusive - Group 1) with patients data who have benefited from this application (between August 2016 and July 2018).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Cumulative duration (on retrospective two years of follow-up) of the unscheduled hospitalizations between the two patient groups.

    Measured: up to two years.

  2. Cumulative duration (on retrospective two years of follow-up) of the scheduled hospitalizations between the two patient groups.

    Measured: up to two years.

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Total length of hospitalisation

    Measured: For both groups. Every two months (follow-up visit) on a retrospective period of two years, the outcome 2 will be measured. The study duration will be of 5 months

  2. Number of events of cardiovascular complications

    Measured: For both groups. Every two months (follow-up visit) on a retrospective period of two years. The study duration will be of 5 months

  3. Mortality rate

    Measured: For both groups. At the end of this retrospective study (Study Period of 5 months).

  4. Rate of peritoneal infections

    Measured: For both groups. At the end of this retrospective study.(Study Period of 5 months).

  5. Number of patient exit technique except death

    For example transplant, hemodialysis

    Measured: For both groups. At the end of this retrospective study. (Study Period of 5 months).

  6. Charlson score : Comorbidity index

    This scale measure the comorbidity symptoms of patients at the beginning of the care by the physician. The minimum score will be "0" and the maximum will be 39.

    Its validation is based on a prediction of health French insurance, as well as on several clinical areas such as oncology or nephrology.

    Measured: baseline
