Overview
Brief Summary
The COVID-19 pandemic created an urgent need to implement digital health solutions for remote clinical management of infected patients who could be monitored at home. The Gemelli Polyclinic in Rome provided a digital health program (SATCOV) to monitor at home newly diagnosed COVID-19 patient, or after an early discharge from the COVID units.
A digital application and a wireless oximeter were provided to patients. Oxygen saturation, heart rate and body temperature were monitored. The aim is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of the oxygen saturation telemonitoring in COVID-19 patients.
Clinicians personalized their remote assistance defining specific alerts for each patient and/or required a timely hospitalization in a dedicated COVID unit if necessary.
