About this study

In this pilot study we will study the feasibility of providing and following ICU patients with smart technology for three months after discharge from a general ward of the Leiden University Medical Centre.

Read the detailed description

Rationale: Smart technology could improve quality of care in patients who have been admitted to the ICU and have been discharged from ICU and hospital, by early diagnosis of complications and early (ambulatory) treatment.

In times of increasing medical care consumption leading to increasing health care costs the investigators have to adopt new ways of acquiring patient-specific knowledge and new ways of delivering care. To obtain this level of insight the investigators need a smart and connected health care system. With the ICU-Recover Box and its smart technology we see new opportunities to improve patient health and to recognise early if escalation of medical care is needed. By intervening early the investigators can reduce costs by reducing health care utilization.

Objectives: The primary objective of the pilot study is to assess the feasibility of the introduction and use of smart technology by persons that have been discharged from the ICU in the three months following hospital discharge. If this pilot study proves to be successful, smart technology will be used in future studies.

Study design: This is a single center cohort study. Study population: The study population consists of 15 patients who have been discharged from the ICU Department to a general ward of the Leiden University Medical Centre.

Intervention: Patients who consent to take part in the study, receive an ICU-Recover Box closely before hospital discharge on the general ward. The ICU-Recover Box will contain a smartphone compatible blood pressure monitor, weight scale, and a watch containing a peripheral oxygen saturation monitor, a pedometer to monitor activity for home monitoring. Never will results of any of the measurements be used for therapy or diagnosis.

Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint of the study will be the feasibility of providing and following ICU patients with smart technology for three months after discharge from a general ward of the Leiden University Medical Centre.

Study groups in NCT05766319
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients receiving the ICU-recover box containing home monitoring devicesExperimentalTreatment of subjects on the ICU will be state of the art, conform current practice, protocols and guidelines. Patients discharged from the ICU will receive an ICU-Recover Box on one of the clinical wards of the LUMC filled with several devices after they have given informed consent. These devices are listed below and are described in further detail in section 6 of this protocol. The ICU-Recover Box contains the following devices and tools: * Withings BPM Connect * Withings Body weight scale * Withings ScanWatch, from which the following features will be used: * Measurement of SpO2 * Automatic recording of heart rate * Automatic recording of activity (step count)
Receives: Device: Withings ScanWatch; Device: Withings BPM Connect; Device: Withings Body

What is being measured

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

  1. Feasibility of using home monitoring devices in terms of patient number

    Primary endpoint of this study is the feasibility of providing patients with the ICU-Recover Box after ICU discharge and before hospital discharge, including the collection of measurement/questionnaire data after hospital discharge. This study will be used to identify the issues when implementing such a system. Feasibility is defined as:

    10 post-ICU patients, who gave informed consent and who were discharged from hospital with the ICU-Recover Box, were able to use the devices within its intended use.

    Measured: three months

  2. Feasibility of using home monitoring devices in terms of data acquisition

    We were able to acquire data from the devices in the ICU-Recover Box.

    • Heart rate ( beats/min ) from the Withings ScanWartch
    • steps/day from the Withings ScanWatch
    • peripheral oxygen saturation (%) from the Withings ScanWatch
    • weight ( kg) from Withings Body
    • Blood pressure ( mmHg) from Withings BPM Connect

    Measured: three months

  3. Feasibility of using home monitoring devices in terms of data storage

    • We were able to store the acquired data in a safe manner in the datasafe of the LUMC

    Measured: three months

  4. Feasibility of using home monitoring devices in terms of data analyzability

    • We were able to analyse the acquired data (using Python).

    Measured: three to six months

  5. Feasibility of using home monitoring devices

    • · > 80 % of the persons that were discharged with an ICU-Recover Box contributed for three months to post-ICU data

    Measured: six months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Acceptability of home monitoring

    Secondary endpoints are:

    • Users, i.e. post-ICU patients, have been asked, by short interviews, for feedback and suggested a

    Measured: three months

  2. Improvements of home monitoring

    • By means of PDCA cycli, the lessons learned and feedback will have led to adjustment and improvement of the ICU-Recover Box, from its content and its use to data acquisition and data analysis.

    Measured: three months
